生物化学哲学博士

该系的生物化学系研究计划专注于细胞膜的化学和生物化学，大分子组装体中信号转导的多尺度建模，用于测量直接蛋白质相互作用的位置和动力学的FRET成像技术的发展，基础的生物物理化学白细胞功能，结构生物学，蛋白质组学，蛋白质功能，疾病和癌症的细胞生物化学以及光生物化学的细胞表面控制。该课程的独特之处在于，学生可以在本系或位于南卡罗来纳州苏福尔斯的桑福德和艾弗拉研究所的参与课程的学院的众多研究项目中选择其论文研究。这些研究所与生物医学研究计划的合作关系还为将基础科学转化为直接影响患者的临床治疗的研究提供了独特的机会
A student in the biochemistry doctoral program must earn 90 credits (60 with prior earned M.S. degree). Of that, a minimum of 24 credits are in course work, with the remaining credits in dissertation research. Three of the 24 credits are seminars. The biochemistry core courses (see list below) are required.<br><br>The Department's biochemistry faculty research programs focus on the chemistry and biochemistry of cell membranes, multi-scale modeling of signal transduction in macromolecular assemblies, development of FRET-imaging technologies to measure the location and dynamics of direct protein interactions, biophysical chemistry underlying cell-surface control of leukocyte function, structural biology, proteomics, protein function, the cellular biochemistry of disease and cancer, and photobiochemistry.
