As a first-year graduate... I was amazed by the quantity and quality of our lab experience. 

Austin Varela

Weill Cornell is unique in how focused it is on medical science research. There is no other institution where I can so easily find professors to collaborate with for clinical research. In the short time I have spent in the program, I have meaningfully contributed to several projects that will be published.
