Structural Biology at Stanford University

Structural Biology at Stanford University Welcome to the Department of Structural Biology located at the beautiful Stanford University campus! Welcome to the Department of Structural Biology!

Our department, founded in the 1970’s as the first of its kind in the United States, is a world leader in the molecular and structural understanding of biology. The discipline sits at the interface of physics, chemistry, and biology. Research in the department spans a wide range of biological problems at the molecular, cellular, tissue, and whole animal scales, and includes the molecular basis of

transcription and translation, cellular signaling, development of multicellular tissues, virus structural biology, immunology, and computational biology. Many of these studies involve the development and application of advanced methodologies, including x-ray crystallography, electron microscopy, NMR, single molecule spectroscopy, tomographic imaging and computer science. We have outstanding expertise and infrastructure in these areas, including close ties to the SLAC National Laboratory, which houses advanced x-ray sources including the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource and the Linear Coherent Light Source, the world’s first hard x-ray laser.
