College Info:

Chartered in 1807 as the first public medical school in the United States, the University of Maryland School of Medicine is into its third century – training the next generation of physicians, scientists, and health professionals, providing compassionate clinical care, and conducting advanced biomedical research to solve the generational health challenges of our time.

Throughout our history, we have been innovative leaders in academic medicine. We were the first US public medical school to open a teaching hospital in 1823, and we were the first to establish shock trauma as a medical field.

We developed aromatase inhibitor drugs as a groundbreaking breast cancer treatment in 1982, performed the most comprehensive total face transplant surgery in 2012, and played a critical role in the development and testing of the major COVID-19 vaccines.

Course Info:

Faculty of the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology are dedicated to understanding life at the biochemical, genetic and cellular level. Our major goals are to make discoveries that provide new knowledge regarding the mechanisms that drive cellular systems and to move these findings from the bench to the bedside. Our second and equally important goal is to educate the next generation of highly-trained and capable scientists and physician investigators.

Using state-of-the-art biochemical, molecular and cellular approaches, our distinguished faculty are investigating protein structure and how this influences function, signal transduction mechanisms, apoptosis regulators, cancer biology, tumor suppressors, and DNA repair processes, muscle contractile mechanisms, and fluorescent measurement.
