About our Undergraduate Program...
The University of Vermont is proud to announce the creation of a new interdiscplinary program in Biochemistry beginning in Fall of 2002 that includes participating faculty from the Colleges of Agriculture, Arts and Sciences, and Medicine. The program will offer the B.S. degree. In addition to course and laboratory work, the program will include the opportunity to directly participate in original research with program members, whose department include Biochemistry, Chemistry, Microbiology & Molecular Genetics, and others accross the University. Students graduating from our program will be well positioned for careers in range of areas, including medicine, bio-medical research and teaching, and all of the many discplines that encompass the molecular aspects of the life sciences. With the recent publication of the Human Genome and other discoveries describing the molecular basis of life, tremendous opportunities await those students with the right background and training. Don't just watch the future of science-join us and become part of community of scientists making it happen! Learn more about the Undergraduate Biochemistry Program |
Research Focus
Dr. Tracy received her Ph.D. in Biology, with an emphasis in Biochemistry, at Syracuse University in 1977. Her current interests in how platelets regulate blood clotting reactions developed as a result of her 5 years of post doctoral training at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. Her first university appointment was made in 1983 as an Assistant Professor of Pathology at the University of Rochester, NY.
