[MARINA HOLZ] Although we established graduate studies at New York Medical College in 1910, the graduate school was formed in 1963. And since then, we've been offering both master's and PhD degrees in several disciplines. We also offer master's degrees in Professional Master's Studies and also in Clinical Laboratory Sciences.

[MARINA HOLZ] New York Medical College is attractive to prospective students for several reasons. One of the reasons is because of our relatively small size. Our students get to interact closely with faculty members. Another reason is that we truly have a world-class faculty that focus on many important areas of investigation, such as Lyme disease research, flu vaccine research, research into concussions, and speech language pathology.

[AUDIO DESCRIPTION] Victor G. Garcia, Ph.D. '15, Associate Professor of Pharmacology.


[VICTOR GARCIA] It all starts with a student, particularly at New York Medical College. If they're interested in some of the research that we do here, we welcome them with open arms to contact us and get a hold of us. There are current programs at New York Medical College that help foster these relationships and help provide students with a small period of time that they can come in and be with a mentor and be in the lab and get lab experience.

[CHARLES WHITE]:You can't possibly beat the professors, the faculty, the staff that are here for you and that are here to help you grow, help you feel special, and help you just make it through your day-to-day activities. It's a family here. And it's really an amazing experience. You'll get the education. And that's great. But you'll also get more to come along with that.

[AUDIO DESCRIPTION] Jonathan A.N. Fisher, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Physiology.


[JONATHAN FISHER] Mentoring and training this next generation of leaders in health and biomedical research, it's something I feel pretty passionately about. One great thing about New York Medical College that I've felt since I came here is that really no student falls between the cracks.


[AUDIO DESCRIPTION] Kenneth M. Lerea, Ph.D., Associate Dean for Master's Programs, Professor of Cell Biology and Anatomy.


[KENNETH LEREA] The faculty are very proud of the accomplishments of all the graduates. The students have demonstrated true success and have brought pride to the NYMC community.

[AUDIO DESCRIPTION] Elizabeth Berry, Ph.D. '23, Assistant Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Program Director of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.


[ELIZABETH BERRY] This school is really different and is much different than my high school or my undergrad in the sense that I've never been surrounded by so many different cultures before. And I think that's really important because you get to learn so many different facts and different perspectives that people come from. And New York Medical College is really good at bringing people together in that sense.

[TETYANA CHEAIRS] I'm really proud of our faculty and how much they work with students-- how much they're willing to help our students. And I'm proud of our graduates who all achieved great things in life and how inclusive and diverse the school is. We really believe that everybody, regardless of your background, deserve a good education.

[MARINA HOLZ] What I like about New York Medical College is the close-knit community of scientists, educators, students who work together to solve many important problems, not only here in Westchester County, but also nationally and internationally.
