Physiological Sciences: Comparative anatomy, physiology,
pharmacology, biochemistry, neurobiology, nutrition, reproductive
biology, and toxicology (R. Reep, Graduate Coordinator).
Infectious Diseases and Experimental Pathology: Bacteriology,
parasitology, virology, immunopathology, molecular mechanisms of
disease and host defense, epidemiology, and veterinary public

The College participates in the interdisciplinary specialization in
toxicology, in cooperation with other departments and colleges in
both the Health Science Center and the Institute of Food and
Agricultural Sciences and with the Center for Environmental and
Human Toxicology (see the Toxicology description under
Interdisciplinary Graduate Studies).
