livo0303 Posted October 28, 2015 Author Posted October 28, 2015 I meant, what Cell bio or Pharmacology programs should I apply to? What schools would be in my range?
eeee1923 Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Are you asking about Purdue (like their medicinal chem & molecular pharm program)? Also cell bio programs and pharmacology programs are different types of biomedical science programs. Although they can have overlaps - their aims tend to be quite different. Also as an international student who hasn't taken the GRE yet, you will be missing out on some of the programs that have earlier due dates (e.g. Nov. 1st). List your scientific interests and then apply to those programs or apply to the large umbrella cell/mol bio programs at the different large universities where you would have the opportunity to get exposed to different research areas.
