Thanks to a recent study by researchers at IOCB Prague, it is now possible to monitor processes in living cells more ...

Biochemistry and cell biology investigate the molecular underpinnings of life, spanning the structure, function and interplay of biomolecules within cells. At its core, biochemistry elucidates the ...

From personalized vaccines to next-generation screening technologies, the ways the world treats and detects cancer could shift dramatically in the coming years. But there are many challenges ahead, as ...

For decades biochemists have been teasing apart the metabolic circuits that power eukaryotic cells. Their descriptions of how enzymes work and play together have illuminated everything from ...

Cancer cells work together to source nutrients from their environment—a cooperative process that was previously overlooked by scientists but may be a promising target for treating cancer. "We ...

The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry offers three baccalaureate degrees: the bachelor of science in chemistry, the bachelor of science in biochemistry, and the bachelor of arts in chemistry.

Cancer cells thrive in an environment deprived of oxygen and nutrients, adapting to survive and grow. Unlike normal cells, they rely on a process called aerobic glycolysis, or the Warburg effect, to ...
