Biophysical Chemistry
"FROM CHEMISTRY TO ORGANISM."
The biological processes in a living organism consist of complicated cycles of chemical reactions. In order to achieve a better understanding of how living organisms function, for example which factors lead to disease, it is important to obtain detailed knowledge of the basic chemical processes.
The Biophysical Chemistry Research Group works with a broad range of research projects within this general area. A large part of the group's research efforts focus on the study of proteins, essential components in all living organisms.
Crystallographic investigations are part of many of the projects, while others are aimed at moddeling of complex biological systems.
The group is involved in many collaborative projects with industry and other academic institutions, both nationally and internationally.
