The Department of Physiology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has a faculty of 24 investigators engaged in diverse studies that span molecular and cellular systems and behavioral sciences, with strong traditions in cardiovascular biology and neuroscience.
The department, part of the UW School of Medicine and Public Health, conducts research that involves studies of mechanisms of human diseases as diverse as heart failure, hearing deficits, epilepsy and muscular dystrophy.
To prepare graduate students for careers in teaching and research, the graduate program in physiology provides doctoral training in mechanistic studies of important cellular and systems processes.
The Department of Physiology is pioneering the development of new approaches to study cells, organs and higher-level systems to advance the understanding of their function, to understand the basis for dysfunction and to ultimately improve human health.
