Faculty Research


Our faculty members and their students at all levels study the most pressing biological problems using the latest technologies. Their research labs provide excellent opportunities for students at all levels to learn, practice, and develop skills to solve biological problems.

Financial support for students interested in research and in applying to graduate school is provided through the LSAMP and RISE programs.  Click Here for more information.
