We are a multidisciplinary department with research interests spanning all aspects of modern molecular and cellular biochemistry.
Our goal is to understand the mechanisms underlying fundamental problems in biology using a range of approaches, from atomic resolution biophysics to bioimaging, chromosomal biology studies, and developmental genetics.
Working in a collaborative setting, our researchers benefit from state-of-the-art infrastructure and sharing of expertise.
