Departments & Programs
Graphic Biomolecular Science and Engineering Program
Seize the future with exciting research and training in the post-genomic revolution of molecular biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, and their integration with engineering, chemistry, physics and biomolecular materials.
Graphic Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry
The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Calfornia Santa Barbara.
Graphic Interdepartmental Graduate Program in Marine Science
An interdisciplinary program at University of California, Santa Barbara offering Masters and Ph. D. degrees in areas such as biological, chemical, physical, and geological oceanography.
Graphic Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology
MCDB graduate training (M.A. and Ph.D.) emphasizes innovative research; undergraduate programs (B.A. and B.S.) in molecular and cellular biology. Faculty lead active research programs focusing on molecular aspects of cell and developmental biology.
UCSB Research Collaborators
Graphic Hansma Research Group
From our background in building Atomic Force Microscopes (AFMs) and other Scanning Probe Microscopes, we now focus on bone research alongside the development of high-speed, higher-resolution AFMs that will capture biological processes in real time. As human populations age, the challenge of preventing osteoporosis by decreasing bone fracture risk grows in importance; we study the fundamental structure and behaviors of bone from the molecular level up to the entire bone level as an aid to prevention.
Graphic Israelachvili Research Group
Surface Forces Apparatus for measuring inter-surface forces at the 1 angstrom level
Graphic Morse Research Group
Molecular mechanisms of biomineralization, biomolecular materials and biomimetic synthesis of new high-performance composites; molecular marine biology and molecular/genetic mechanisms controlling metamorphosis.
Graphic Stucky Research Group
Current research interests include molecular assembly of nanoscale to macroscale components of composite systems; the interface of inorganics with biomolecules and the cardiovascular system; chemistry associated with the efficient utlization of energy resources; gradient materials and interfaces; understanding Nature's routes to organic/inorganic bioassembly.
