Hey everyone!
I wanted to bring your attention to a program that I don't think a lot of people are aware of. It's the fairly new Masters of Science in Biomedical Imaging Program at UCSF. http://www.radiology.ucsf.edu/education/graduate-programs/mbi-program. It's about to start it's 3rd year, and it's part of the Radiology Dept. at UCSF.
From the site:
"The Masters of Science in Biomedical Imaging (MSBI) program is intended for students with Bachelors degrees, advanced pre-doctoral students, postdoctoral fellows, residents, researchers and faculty members who wish to master biomedical imaging and research methods to enhance their research designs and broaden their investigative projects. The course can be completed in one year of full time study or two years of part time study.
Course work includes instruction in core theory drawn from imaging physics, engineering and mathematics, linked to physiology and disease processes, providing a foundation in interdisciplinary scholarship. In addition to introduction to the fundamentals underlying image formation, hands-on laboratory courses with experiments relevant for characterizing pathologies, monitoring response to therapy and assessing the underlying mechanisms and etiologies, will be introduced."
They've just re-opened their application from June 1st 2013 till June 30th 2013 to fill in the few empty spots that they have for the upcoming school year. The class size about 20, with about 10 different professors! This is a great opportunity for any pre-med student who's looking for a unique program to enhance their med school app! And come on guys, it's UCSF, think about all the great opportunities you'd have there 🙂, as well as graduating with a Masters degree!
I've just submitted my application and I'm eagerly waiting for a response. It seems like they really are looking to fill in the spots ASAP, so I suggest really looking into this world-class program.
The only downside is that it's fairly expensive :/
So far, I haven't really heard much buzz about this on SDN, so I thought I'd share!
