We look for a solid foundation in the basic sciences including organic chemistry, biology, biochemistry, molecular biology and calculus. Additionally, the Graduate Record Examination and the Test of English as a Foreign Language for those from non-English speaking foreign countries are required. Applicants also should have previous experience in conducting original research, such as an undergraduate honors thesis, summer research or technical laboratory position.
