More about our research

Founded in 1966, the Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology is one of five basic science departments in the UC Davis School of Medicine

Our tripartite mission is to conduct innovative, cutting edge research, engage in high-level service and provide excellent educational opportunities and mentoring to students, postdoctoral fellows, and residents in the discipline of physiology. Our aim is to create new knowledge to advance understanding of biological processes and benefit society by facilitating more precise diagnosis, and effective disease treatment.

In the post molecular and post genome eras, Physiology is uniquely posed at the nexus to employ these new tools to gain a more detailed understanding of function at the molecular level or to investigate the functional consequences of alterations in gene products at the cellular, organ and organismal levels. Scientifically we are determined to access and exploit these unprecedented opportunties!

Search Underway for Two Faculty Positions

The Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology is currently conducting a nationwide search for two, tenure track, entry level faculty postions at the Assistant Professor level as part of our Membrane Biology Initiative.

Research emphasis targeted by this recruitment are membrane transporter, channel or receptor structure-function analysis and or modern proteomic and or genomic approaches to the study of membrane transporter, channel or receptor regulation through post-translational modification.
