DEPARTMENT OF BIOCHEMISTRY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY
Faculty of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology are dedicated to
understanding life at the biochemical, genetic and cellular level. Our major
goals are to make discoveries that provide new knowledge regarding the
mechanisms that drive cellular systems and to move these findings from the bench
to the bedside. Our second and equally important goal is to educate the next
generation of highly-trained and capable scientists and physician investigators.
Using state-of-the-art biochemical, molecular and cellular approaches, our
distinguished faculty are investigating protein structure and how this
influences function, signal transduction mechanisms, apoptosis regulators,
cancer biology, tumor suppressors, and DNA repair processes, muscle contractile
mechanisms, and fluorescent measurement.
This effort includes the use of high-tech instrumentation including nuclear
magnetic resonance, fluorescence spectroscopy, crystallography, proteomics/mass
spectrometry and fluorescent cell imaging. The Department of Biochemistry and
Molecular Biology ranks in the top twenty in NIH funding among biochemistry
departments in public medical schools and in the top twenty among biochemistry
departments in all medical schools. Medical and graduate education are key
components of the Department’s mission. Faculty train medical school students in
molecular and cell sciences and support the MD/PhD program. The Biochemistry
Graduate Program provides comprehensive training in preparation for independent
research careers. The Biochemistry Graduate Program includes two tracks:
Biochemistry/Molecular Biology and Structural Biology.
