Basic Medical Sciences (BMS) faculty also teach and provide curricular leadership to support the educational mission of the University. Our blended faculty creates a unique environment to perform cutting-edge collaborative and interdisciplinary research aimed at investigating fundamental biological questions and finding solutions to challenges in cancer, metabolic and cardiovascular as well as neurological and infectious diseases.
Through discovery, education, and service, the BMS faculty strive to be leaders in their areas of scholarship. Using interdisciplinary approaches, BMS faculty conduct hypothesis-driven investigations to uncover the mechanisms underlying biological processes and human diseases, and collaborate with clinical researchers to develop novel diagnostics, therapies, and preventive measures. BMS faculty is also engaged in medical and graduate education by designing, delivering, and assessing curricula, and conducting educational scholarships.
