During the past decades, rapid development in various biological fields, such as molecular and cell biology, biochemistry, biophysics, bio-informatics, genomics and proteomics, has been adding new, powerful tools to study various diseases at the cellular and molecular levels. How to utilize various biological tools to develop new prevention, diagnosis, and treatment methods to ameliorate various diseases of mankind is a challenging and yet an exciting task for the life-scientists of the post-genomic era.
Institute of Molecular Medicine (IMM), derived from the Department of Life Science, was established in 2002 for the need to integrate all disciplines of basic sciences to conduct research work in the field of molecular medicine. Also, IMM has mission to nurture future scientists for advanced medical research at the levels of master’s degree and Ph.D.
