The Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology strives to marry the increasingly powerful tools of genomics and computational biology with the classic approaches of biochemistry and molecular biology to reveal fundamental processes of biology and to convert those discoveries into treatments that improve the well-being of patients.
Biochemistry uses the principles of chemistry and physics to understand biological molecules, structures, and reactions. Molecular biology focuses on how biological molecules interact to form cells, organisms, and behaviors.
The Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Department engages in an unsurpassed variety of research within the life sciences maintaining its deep and longstanding commitment to integrative, interdisciplinary team-building, and culture of deep collaboration, producing extraordinary outcomes.
Earn a Ph.D. in Biochemistry, Microbiology and Molecular Biology (BMMB) researching alongside 53 faculty and more than 75 graduate students in areas from the structures of biological molecules and their mechanisms to the development of multicellular organisms.
The course provides the student with a sufficient knowledge of biochemical processes, cellular molecules and their metabolism to serve as a basis for advanced study of nutrition, genetics, biotechnology, agricultural sciences, or related biological areas that depend on a biochemical foundation.
