The Department of Physiology and Biophysics is located on the Health Sciences Campus, with laboratories and administrative offices in the Seeley Mudd Laboratory, the Doheny Eye Institute, the Parkview Medical Building and the Raulston Building. Faculty of the department are also located at the LAC + USC Medical Center and in research laboratories on the University Park Campus.
The graduate program in physiology and biophysics is designed to prepare students for a career in research and teaching in physiology and related fields. Faculty of the department guide students toward becoming effective members of today's scientific community by providing an integrated knowledge of physiological systems at several levels of organization. The course of study required of each candidate is planned to meet his or her individual interests and needs.
Faculty guidance and specialized facilities are available for advanced research in the four broad areas of research represented in the department: endocrinology, reproduction and metabolism; neurophysiology; fluid and electrolyte physiology; and cellular and molecular physiology.
