Dr. Salomon teaches across Brown’s undergraduate, graduate, and medical programs, focusing on making biochemistry rigorous, accessible, and relevant to students. His courses have included BIOL 0280 Introductory Biochemistry, BIOL 1270/2270 Advanced Biochemistry, BIOL 2030 Foundations of Advanced Study in the Life Sciences, and BIOL 3642/IMS-I Scientific Foundations in Medicine. Across these settings, he emphasizes conceptual understanding, critical analysis of scientific data and literature, and clear scientific communication.

His teaching spans large undergraduate lecture courses, advanced discussion-based classes, graduate training, and medical education. In BIOL 0280, he has helped introduce hundreds of students each year to the core principles of biochemistry while connecting those fundamentals to modern approaches such as proteomics, genomics, structural biology, and cell signaling. In advanced undergraduate and graduate courses, he combines mechanistic biochemistry with close reading of the primary literature and student presentations. In medical education, he teaches the biochemical foundations of human disease with an emphasis on clinical relevance.

Dr. Salomon’s teaching is grounded in active learning and innovation. He has helped develop and implement tools such as lecture capture, podcasts, online discussion resources, rapid electronic feedback, and in-class response systems to support student engagement and comprehension in fast-paced courses. Across all levels, his goal is to help students build a strong foundation in biochemical thinking while developing the analytical and communication skills essential for success in science and medicine.
