The Anatomy, PhD is offered through Loma Linda University’s Integrated Biomedical Graduate Studies program (IBGS) and leads to the PhD degree in Anatomy. The program has a common integrated first year core curriculum that covers biochemical, molecular, cellular, and physiological functions of living systems, with emphasis on analytical thinking and problem solving.
