We are delighted to invite you to the Department’s 75th Anniversary Symposium, taking place on October 24, 2025
Since our founding in 1950 alongside the Faculty of Medicine, our Department has contributed to groundbreaking scientific achievements—from decoding the genetic code to Nobel Prize-winning advances in site-directed mutagenesis. This special event will celebrate our legacy, highlight exciting current research, and offer a look ahead at the future of biochemistry and molecular biology at UBC.
The 75th Anniversary symposium will feature presentations from esteemed alumni, including Dr. Peter Davies (Queens University), Dr. Ruedi Aebersold (ETH Zurich), Dr. David Russell (UT Southwestern), Dr. Marlys Koschinsky (Western University), Dr. Albert Berghuis (McGill University), and Dr. Dustin King (Simon Fraser University) and display of historical items from our department.
