Many of our PhD graduates advance to fellowships in major laboratories, including those of the National Institutes of Health, the Howard Hughes Medical Institutes and universities. Several opt for careers in the private sector, working for biomedical research firms or medical or laboratory product companies. Some take less traditional career paths, e.g., pursuing intellectual property law or building their own biotechnology firms.
