Bio-Physical Chemistry
Biophysical Chemistry represents the union of Chemistry, Physics, and Biology using a variety of experimental and theoretical approaches to understand the structure and function of biological systems. The Chemistry faculty at UC Davis use different techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance, electron paramagnetic resonance, x-ray crystallography, ultra-fast spectroscopy, as well as statistical and quantum mechanical theory to study the molecular details of important biological processes, such as: protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid interactions, protein structure and function, enzyme mechanisms, photosynthesis and neuronal transduction.
