Our Mission
We study how biomolecules function and interact to drive the complex, diverse, and adaptive behaviors of living systems. Our focus is on biological mechanism at the atomic level. We are pioneers in all areas of biophysics, structural biology, and protein engineering and design.
We have strong collaborative ties to the IBD, Chemistry, GGSB, MGCB, and Neurobiology.
Join Us
The Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
