The Program in Biochemistry is built on a foundation of innovation and excellence in biomedical research. The success of our program can be judged by the fact that 19 Ph.D.s in Biochemistry have been awarded in the last six years.The Program's traditional strengths in classical biochemistry and genetics are complemented by current expertise in molecular and cancer biology. Together these disciplines form the core of life science research at the Health Sciences Center.
The Program offers excellent opportunities for training, leading to an advanced degree in Biochemistry. The close proximity of the Program members to other basic science departments and clinical departments provides an excellent environment for the interchange of ideas, from the most basic to those having a direct impact on clinical practice. The current core faculty is augmented by numerous investigators, who are actively involved in research in these other departments of the School of Medicine and its clinical affiliates, and who can act as mentors for a student's thesis research project.
