Upon completion of the Master’s phase, you will continue your research during the PhD phase in the laboratory of any Matter to Life Faculty member

Nitin Bohra, 2^nd semester Master student

“During my undergraduate, I was amazed by the coordination of different metabolic and regulatory pathways. I wanted to understand how these well-coordinated systems give rise to what we call “living systems”.   The Matter to Life program is the perfect choice for me where I could understand what life is from the perspective of Biology, Chemistry and Physics during the Master’s phase and then continue in my area of interest in the PhD phase.”
