Meet Our Faculty
Our program offers an optimal balance between a close-knit, supportive community and a broad range of exciting faculty labs for thesis research.
Our program is centered in the Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Department, where students will take many of their courses and participate in activities from PhD Club to our annual retreat, and become members of the vibrant community of faculty, students, and postdocs. But students aren’t limited to joining thesis research labs in our department – our program includes over 40 faculty from across the Johns Hopkins Schools of Public Health, Medicine, Engineering, and Arts and Sciences.
Faculty and students work together to expand our knowledge of the biochemical and molecular bases of biological processes, and to understand their impact on health at scales from cells to populations. Our faculty have a broad range of research interests – check out our program scope to learn about the major themes.
