Department of Biology
The Department of Biology within the School of Arts and Sciences is internationally recognized for the strengths of its research and educational programs. A particular asset of the department is its integrated nature, which spans scales and disciplines. Research areas in the department include ecology and evolution, plant sciences, molecular and cellular biology, genomics, quantitative biology, and neuroscience. We value interdisciplinary collaboration and collegiality, and strive to integrate biology across scales, from molecules to social assemblies; across technologies, from nanoengineering to robotic vision; and across approaches, from laboratory experiments to data modeling; to transcend the traditional boundaries of biological studies.
The Sachs Program for Arts Innovation has awarded the following grants in support of the Department of Biology and members of its community.
