Collaborative Specializations and Interdepartmental Programs

The research groups directed by the faculty are engaged in the pursuit of fundamental and applied research questions involving diverse biological systems (plants, humans and other animals, prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbes). In general, they follow lines of scientific inquiry at the level of molecules to cells.
