Graduate students in the HaBiT Research Lab have the opportunity to design and carry out their own research studies, as well as being involved in ongoing research with other faculty and students in the lab. The goal of our graduate training is to develop clinical and research scientists who are able to produce and consume high-quality research in clinical health areas.
