I am currently in a Post Bac research program,looking to apply to a Biomedical Ph.D program for the fall 2014 term. My general interest are in molecular biology, gene expression/ regulation and I prefer an Umbrella program through the school of medicine. However, being a underrepresented minority (African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Native Americans) I wanted to know of any programs that offer a great support system to these type of students? I know obtaining my Ph.D is not going to be easy but I want to attend a diverse program where I will not feel like an outcast. I would love to hear suggestion and any words of wisdom for programs that are not so welcoming.
