From molecular structures and interactions to cellular processes and animal models, to the bases of health and disease
The Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology offers a highly collaborative community in which researchers employ state-of-the-art equipment, facilities, and approaches to investigate molecular mechanisms that form the basis of life. The fields of biochemistry and molecular biology have been transformed by recent innovations in genomics, structural biology, computational tools, and instrumentation technology. The integration of these advancements creates unprecedented opportunities for scientific research and breakthroughs in the understanding and treatment of disease. Our faculty work closely with postdocs and students to provide a vibrant mentoring and training experience for young scientists.
