Temple University School of Medicine (TUSM) faculty members are committed to ensuring that by the time students graduate, they not only have a quality education but have been inspired and enlightened by their experiences in the classroom. In addition, TUSM investigators participate in collaborative research within interdisciplinary research centers, all of which have a focus related to translational medicine.
