What PhD. would have this as the topics for interest.

Using organic chemistry, cell biology/molecular biology, and Biochemistry?

Biological Chemistry?

Thanks.

Protein Crystallography with concurrent drug design? Crystallography requires cell bio/molec bio work to get the protein in bacteria, alter it, concentrate it, etc. Biochemistry for purification, characterization, etc. Biophysics for analyzing it. Organic chemistry for drug design.

Crystallography is a POOR choice for MD/PhDs. The projects are high risk, often scooped, and take a lot of time to pull off. Beware.

Of course. I would NEVER recommend an MD/PhD or PhD to do it. It's all or nothing. You could plod for years on nothing or get something easily crystallizable in a year and get a Nature paper.

It IS a field that brings together many different approaches, however.
