​​​​​​​​​​​The Department of Biochemistry at Stellenbosch University has a number of active research groups, each making a significant contribution to biochemistry and science as a whole (refer to our latest publication list​).

Our research laboratories house state of the art research instrumentation and facilities and are managed by highly trained technical staff, all essential for maintaining a high standard in biochemical research​.

Our post-graduates students gain valuable laboratory experience in basic and the latest research techniques. This enables them to leave Stellenbosch with both knowledge and experience to ensure success in their science careers.
