化学生物学博士

化学生物学涉及探索化学原理以研究和操纵生物系统，以及利用生物学促进化学发展。它集成了来自不同科学领域的工具和技术，以促进化学，生物学和医学界的创新和发现。马里兰大学化学与生物化学系在化学生物学方面拥有独特的优势。我们学院的研究集中在化学-生物学接口的许多重要领域。其中包括：用于分子识别的自组装和客体系统，用于解密生物学功能的新型分子探针的设计和合成，用于研究酶促反应的特殊分析工具的开发，研究泛素化，糖基化和其他翻译后修饰的创新方法，治疗性抗体的位点特异性修饰，生物聚合物及其复合物的结构生物学和生物物理化学
Chemical biology involves the exploration of chemical principles for the study and manipulation of biological systems, as well as the harnessing of biology to advance chemistry. It integrates tools and techniques from different scientific fields to foster the innovations and discoveries at the interface of chemistry, biology, and medicine. The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at University of Maryland possesses unique strengths in chemical biology, The research of our faculty focuses on a wide variety of important areas at the chemistry-biology interface. These include: self-assembly and host-guest systems for molecular recognition, design and synthesis of novel molecular probes for deciphering biological functions, development of special analytical tools for investigating enzymatic reactions, innovative approaches to studying ubiquitination, glycosylation, and other posttranslational modifications, site-specific modification of therapeutic antibodies, structural biology and biophysical chemistry of biopolymers and their complexes, advanced computational models of complex biological systems, functional proteomics and glycomics, and nanotechnology/nanomaterials for drug delivery and vaccine development.
