Duke’s cross-departmental PhD in Cell & Molecular Biology (CMB) empowers scholars to decipher and reprogram cellular machinery. Rotations span super-resolution imaging of mitotic spindle dynamics, CRISPR screens mapping ferroptosis regulators, and synthetic organelle engineering. Professional tracks support biotech translation, policy, or K-12 outreach.
