Robert T. Grammer, Ph.D.

Grammer  

I have taught at Belmont University since 1985. My fields of interest within biology are the cellular and molecular basis of biological processes. I received a B.S. in Chemistry from the University of Georgia and a Ph.D. in Molecular Biology from Vanderbilt University. Following completion of my Ph.D., I did postdoctoral research in the Department of Biochemistry in the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where I studied hormonal systems of blood pressure control, including renin and atrial natriuretic peptide.

Since coming to Belmont, I have been involved in the Honors Program - both tutoring students and serving as Director of the Program; undergraduate research - leading students in projects in bacterial viruses, c. elegans, and physiology; and instruction - teaching courses in molecular and cellular biology, physiology, and research techniques. I am also the Associate Dean for the School of Sciences.

My principal interests outside of academics revolve around my family, wife Linda, son Scott, daughter Adrian and grandson Cade. I am an active member of Crievewood Baptist Church.

 I'd like to contact Dr. Grammer.
