UB 2020’s impact on education

Our faculty lead efforts to develop new courses that address many aspects of molecular recognition, including undergraduate and graduate courses in gene annotation and bioinformatics.

Biochemistry faculty organize and participate in international symposia sponsored by the MRBSB, and continue to lead new initiatives in education and research.

While the MRBSB includes essential contributions from faculty outside our department, leadership from biochemistry has been crucial to its success.

Molecular Recognition in Biological Systems and Bioinformatics (MRBSB)

This faculty-led research group uses small molecules, molecular structures and pharmacodynamic approaches to unravel the complexities of biological systems and understand the fundamental biology and molecular nature of disease.
