Research Overview
The Biochemistry, Cell, and Developmental Biology (BCDB) graduate training program is founded on multidisciplinary approaches to biomedical research. The program combines state-of-the-art research with innovative coursework emphasizing the mastering of primary scientific literature and training in professional development. BCDB faculty members are affiliated with basic science and clinical departments of the Emory School of Medicine, and the departments of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics of Emory College.
BCDB faculty research falls within four main areas:
Biochemistry
Structural, functional and physical studies of macromolecules and macromolecular complexes
Biochemistry FacultyCell Biology
In vitro and in vivo studies of cellular and organismal levels using a range of modern cell biological techniques
Cell Biology FacultyDevelopmental Biology
Studies investigating the mechanisms and molecules involved in embryogenesis of a variety of different model organisms
Developmental Biology FacultyStructural Biology
Application of biophysical techniques and computational modeling to determine regulation of biomolecules at highest levels of resolution
