Molecular & Cellular Biology

Molecular and cellular biologists scrutinize the smallest components of living organisms to understand life processes. From DNA replication to cell division, our physiology, growth, and health are dictated on the microscopic level. Princeton’s Molecular Biology department has 39 faculty research labs and 20 associated faculty labs, and its faculty have received awards like the Nobel Prize and MacArthur Genius grants.

Our top three schools for degrees in molecular and cellular biology are:

1. Princeton University

2. Johns Hopkins University

3. Yale University
