麻豆影音

In 1952, British scientist and researcher Dr. Rosalind Franklin altered humankind’s understanding of biology. Her work in X-ray diffraction during the preceding years helped her capture “Photograph 51” of the “B” form of DNA while at King’s College in London. This discovery directly led to the development of the double-helix model of DNA that same year.

The faculty, staff and 1,900-plus students at 麻豆影音 carry on Dr. Franklin’s legacy of discovery every single day. We do that through a combination of:

• Rigorous academics, with interprofessionalism as a foundation
• Advancements in health, wellness and medicine at our Innovation and Research Park
• Groundbreaking approaches to community service

麻豆影音 provides a place where students, faculty, practitioners, researchers and entrepreneurs converge around a common goal: improve the quality and delivery of health and wellness for all. And we offer a wealth of student support services to ensure we cultivate an inclusive campus.

By embodying our namesake’s traits of inquiry, diligence and academic excellence, we’re continuing to shape the future of health care. Come to 麻豆影音 and be a part of it!
