Graduate Group in Comparative Pathology at UC Davis
Graduate Student Profiles

WELCOME to the
Graduate Group in Comparative Pathology's student website!



We think the best way to attract top applicants is to show you the breadth of opportunities for research on the UC Davis campus in the diverse manifestations of disease using examples of our current graduate students and their projects.

The people and projects presented here represent areas of specific strength in our program, where there are many opportunities for new graduate student research. Our website volunteers have each contributed a personal statement about their own path to graduate school and how the program is developing their career goals. With over 100 faculty members drawn from the School of Medicine, Veterinary Medicine, and other campus biology faculty, GGCP offers a unique network of researchers investigating the biology of disease in a global context.
