分子组成，结构，相互作用和反应控制着从微生物到后生动物的生物系统的宏观行为。Georgia Tech的QBioS研究人员正在努力获得对生物系统的分子水平的了解。该领域的研究包括应用于光合作用，纳米科学，生命进化，化学生态学和人类健康等问题的生物物理化学，生物分析化学，生物化学和化学生物学。在这些实验室工作的QBioS学生将在高度跨学科的环境中接受培训，该环境将经典的化学和生物化学课程与QBioS计划的定量和生物学要素相结合。
Molecular composition, structure, interactions, and reactions govern the macroscopic behavior of biological systems from microbes to metazoans. QBioS researchers at Georgia Tech are working to obtain a molecular-level understanding of biological systems. Research in this area includes biophysical chemistry, bioanalytical chemistry, biochemistry, and chemical biology applied to questions of photosynthesis, nanoscience, the evolution of life, chemical ecology, and human health. QBioS students working in these labs will be trained in a highly interdisciplinary environment that combines a classic chemistry and biochemistry curriculum with the quantitative and biological elements of the QBioS program.
