Admissions — Physiology Program

The Physiology Program is accredited to award a PhD and a Master’s Degree within the program.
There are two mechanisms for admission:

  1. You can apply for an undifferentiated status in the graduate school
  2. You can apply directly to the Physiology Program

The application process is the same for both mechanisms.

The Brent Vogt laboratory's interest is in the structure, connections, functions and neuropathologies of cingulate cortex. All pain behaviors and chronic pain models engage cingulate cortex and we are attempting to detail the circuits in cingulate cortex that convert a brief sensory code (~200-300 msec duration) that originates in the midline, mediodorsal and intralaminar thalamic nuclei to long-duration responses (1-2 secs).
