BSD BMB - Perozo Lab

About the Department

The Center for Mechanical Excitability (CME) is dedicated to the study of the mechanobiome, the biological construct where forces are sensed, transduced, and exerted as part of a broad range of processes, both physiological and pathophysiological. Our approach covers a range of biological mechanisms both at the mesoscale and the nanoscale. We use an advanced toolkit that includes: biochemistry, biophysics, cell and molecular biology, structural biology and imaging, as well as AI-driven computational modeling and bioinformatics; all within the context of evolutionary biology. The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology studies how biomolecules function and interact to drive the complex, diverse, and adaptive behaviors of living systems. Our focus is on biological mechanisms described at the atomic level. We are highly collaboratory and often employ multiple approaches to address otherwise intractable questions. We have particular strengths in membrane proteins and RNA biochemistry and are pioneers in all areas of biophysics, structural biology, biochemistry, and protein engineering and design.
