The Microbiology & Molecular Pathogenesis Program (M2P2) provides graduate students and postdoctoral fellows with first-rate training to prepare them for careers in research as competitive, independent investigators. The program faculty's research interests span a wide range of questions regarding host-microbe interactions and related topics in pathogenesis, which allows the entering trainee considerable breadth of choice of experimental systems, approaches and research topics. Our research areas include bacteria, fungi, parasites, microbe-host interactions and microbe-microbe interactions. Training in Microbiology & Molecular Pathogenesis spans six departments and encompasses two graduate programs.

Graduate training in Microbiology & Molecular Pathogenesis at Dartmouth is interdisciplinary and nurtured by a highly interactive environment in which the trainees are regularly exposed to diverse areas of faculty expertise (from clinical to basic science studies) in a variety of forums, including advanced courses, weekly seminar series & journal clubs, and our annual Program retreat.

For admissions information, application material and general questions, please contact either the Microbiology & Molecular Pathogenesis Program directly (Email: Molecular.Pathogenesis@Dartmouth.EDU ) or visit the MCB web site or for more specific information contact specific faculty members (faculty e-mails can be found on the faculty page). Graduate students interested in post-doctoral study should contact faculty members directly.
