Electives are courses directly relevant to human biology and disease, but are not redundant with the thesis work; One semester course equivalent is required as an elective(s). A wide range of courses are accepted. Electives can be semester-long courses, nanocourses, or quarter courses. See the list of electives elsewhere on this web site.
All LHB students will also attend the monthly Dinner Series and Leder/ MD-PhD Grand Rounds throughout their 2 years in the program. It is also strongly encouraged that they continue to attend these activities until they complete the Program. Additional extracurricular activities will be offered as well.
