Stanford Biosciences

Immersed in Stanford’s environment of creative exploration and interdisciplinary collaboration, our students work alongside not only the best minds in the biosciences, but with leaders in chemistry, physics, statistics, computer sciences, engineering, and myriad other disciplines. In addition to first-year coursework and the innovative, discussion-based Foundations of Experimental Biology, students supplement their learning through two to three-week mini-courses that span disciplines and generate innovative approaches to problem-solving. And through our close partnership with Stanford Hospitals and Clinics, students can witness firsthand the potential real-world impact of their work.
