Dr. Julia Oxford has held post-doctoral and research appointments at a number of institutions including the Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research, Shriners Hospital for Crippled Children and Colorado State University. Since coming to Boise State, she has worked to develop a world-class research program in biological systems with a focus on structural and physical aspects of cellular and molecular systems. In addition teaching, supervising student researchers, and creating an extensive list of professional publications, Dr. Oxford also serves as the director of the Biomolecular Research Center.
