QB3 research

QB3 researchers make fundamental scientific discoveries that lead to applications in areas such as medical diagnostics, pharmacological therapy, and biofuels. Research conducted by our faculty falls into one or more of eight themes:

	Biological imaging Visualizing biological systems at all scales: atoms, cells, organs.
	Synthetic biology Design, redesign, and construction of new biological parts, devices, and systems.
	Biomolecular structure and mechanism Structure, function, and dynamics of macromolecules.
	Chemical biology Applying the tools of chemistry to biology, aiding in drug discovery and interrogation of biology.
	Precision measurement and control of biological systems Developing the ability to mechanically, optically, or chemically alter and monitor biology for interrogation and diagnostics.
	Genotype to phenotype Harvesting the information in genomes and the effect of variation.
	Theoretical modeling of biological systems Theoretical and computational analysis of macromolecules, biological systems, and interpretation of experimental data.
	Cellular dynamics Biochemical and biophysical analysis of cellular processes.
