Research Facilities
In addition to a world-class faculty, graduate students in the Molecular and Developmental Biology program enjoy access to world-class facilities while conducting their research at the Children's Hospital Research Foundation.
- Lots of Room to Work
Cincinnati Children's now offers more research space than any other pediatric facility in the nation: 520,000 square feet in five buildings -- including a dedicated research building that was most recently expanded in the Fall of 2000 -- close to patient care facilities and the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. - Access to shared Core Resource Facilities
Students have access to Children's core support capabilities and facilities. These core support capabilities are resources that are available for all researchers and students at the Research Foundation. Core resources for basic and clinical research enhance investigators' access to cutting-edge technology and data analysis for a wide variety of projects. - Research Materials at Your Disposal
Graduate students are able to use two scientific research libraries. At Cincinnati Children's, you can use the Pratt Library, and at UC you can search through the College of Medicine's library system. Between the two libraries, you have access to all major medical and scientific journals. In addition, each library has an extensive compilation of journals accessible online, often with subscriptions that allow you to access them. 
Electronic Infrastructure
All students have access to computing facilities while at Cincinnati Children's, including workstations, high-speed Internet connections, and email accounts. In addition, the Division of Pediatric Informatics provides computational resources for such tasks as data processing and analysis. - UC College of Medicine
Of course, since the Molecular and Developmental Biology Graduate Program is administered by the University of Cincinnati's College of Medicine, students have access to resources at UC. UC's Medical Sciences Building, one of the largest research-teaching structures under one roof in this country, houses extensive state-of-the-art research facilities.
