BBS is an interdepartmental program within the Division of Medical Sciences at Harvard Medical School. Through the Division of Medical Sciences, BBS recommends its candidates to the Faculty of Arts and Sciences Harvard University for the Ph.D. degree.

BBS faculty is primarily drawn from 5 preclinical departments of the Medical School: Cell Biology, Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology (BCMP), Microbiology and Molecular Genetics, Pathology, and Genetics. In addition, selected faculty located within area hospitals and institutions are members of BBS and thus available for rotations and dissertation research by the graduate students in the Program.

BBS offers interdisciplinary research training concentrated in one or more or the following areas: biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, pathology, microbiology, structural biology, pharmacology, virology, developmental biology and computational biology.

The methods and experimental approaches used to address questions within these areas range from the techniques of molecular biology, protein chemistry, morphology and biophysics to those of molecular and developmental genetics. The research of the program faculty and students is aimed at elucidating normal mechanisms, but may well take advantage of sharper questions raised by pathological conditions, such as hereditary abnormalities and neoplastic processes.
