<br>
I write to ask for your help in identifying qualified students in your institute who would be interested in applying to the<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong><span style="font-family:Helvetica">PhD Program in Biological Sciences in Public Health
(<a href="https://harvard.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=509400ac97b08fbd1f2b63802&id=16a866fd9e&e=0028489168"><span style="color:#656565;font-weight:normal">BPH</span></a>)</span></strong><span class="apple-converted-space"><b> </b></span>at the Harvard
T.H. Chan School of Public Health. The BPH program emphasizes interdisciplinary basic research spanning from molecular biology to human populations. BPH students develop individualized research projects focused on defining the molecular underpinnings of human
health and disease by employing cutting-edge approaches in biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, genomics, metabolic biology, physiology, immunology, biophysics, computational and systems biology, and bioengineering. A central goal of the research in this
program, whether basic or translational, is the improved understanding, prevention, and treatment of the most common and impactful global health threats.<br>
<br>
The program encompasses laboratories and faculty mentors in the Departments of Environmental Health, Immunology, and Infectious Diseases, Molecular Metabolism, and Nutrition. Major areas of investigation include: <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<strong><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Helvetica">The Metabolic Basis of Health and Disease</span></strong><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Helvetica">: Metabolic function and dysfunction are at the core of human physiology and pathology,
impacting a diverse array of chronic and infectious diseases. BPH laboratories are focused on metabolism research as a core element in understanding and therapeutically intervening in aging, cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, inflammation, obesity,
and neurodegenerative diseases, among others. <o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="color:#656565;mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;line-height:13.5pt;mso-list:l3 level1 lfo2">
<strong><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Helvetica">Immunology and Infectious Diseases: </span></strong><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Helvetica">Defining the complex interplay of infectious agents and microbes with their hosts is central
to preventing and treating many of the world’s most widespread and deadliest diseases. BPH laboratories are focused on infectious and immune-mediated diseases, including HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, Chagas, Malaria, Pneumonia, Enteric Diseases, Inflammatory Bowel,
and Autoimmune diseases. <o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="color:#656565;mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;line-height:13.5pt;mso-list:l2 level1 lfo3">
<strong><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Helvetica">Environmental Health: </span></strong><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Helvetica">Environmental exposures are a major underlying risk factor for numerous chronic diseases. BPH laboratories
are focused on how cells and tissues adapt and respond to air pollution particles, environmental toxins, infectious agents, and radiation. Research projects employ a range of modern techniques to mechanistically define the pathogenesis of asthma and other
lung diseases and responses to radiation and environmental stresses impacting health risk and outcomes.<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:13.5pt"><span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:Helvetica;color:#656565">While the program roots cut across the entire range of biological sciences, the research also employs core quantitative disciplines (e.g., biostatistics
and epidemiology), as well as approaches that bridge biology, chemistry, engineering, and computation. Students attracted to this program generally share this interdisciplinary interest and a desire to confront the most pressing health issues of our time.<br>
<br>
All students admitted into this training program are provided full tuition, health insurance and stipend support. Our graduates hold distinguished positions in academia, industry, government, and other arenas of life science research, consulting, communications
and policy.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><strong><span style="font-family:Helvetica">The application deadline for the 2021-22 Academic Year is December 1, 2020.</span></strong> <br>
<br>
<em><span style="font-family:Helvetica">Please note</span></em>: The BPH program does not require or consider the GRE as part of its application process. In addition, applicants who are non-native English speakers and who received their undergraduate degree
from an academic institution where English is not the primary language of instruction now have the option to submit scores for the International English Language Testing System - Academic test (IELTS) as proof of English proficiency.<br>
