Research

Biochemical and physiological processes determine how living cells, tissues and organs function and ultimately impact the survival of the whole organism. 

The purpose of Biology Education Research at UGA is to promote research that requires integrated thinking about biology and university education and to develop interdisciplinary scientists engaged in both life sciences research and educational research. We also focus…

Cellular & Developmental Biology advances our understanding of how molecular processes contribute to cell function, cell division and differentiation and ultimately assemble complex organisms.

Ecology seeks to understand the relationships between living organisms and their physical and biological environment. We study the vital connections between microbes, plants and/or animals and the changing world around…

Evolutionary biology illuminates the processes that contributed to the diversity of Life on Earth. We use a combination of…

Fungi range in scale from microscopic single cells to vast underground mycelial colonies, covering hundreds of acres. Because they are closely related to animals, and because their biology and genetics are easily manipulated…

Genomics & Bioinformatics melds the disciplines of statistics, computer science and life sciences to manage and analyze the extraordinary amount of information emerging from an ongoing revolution in genomics technologies and…

Molecular Genetics centers on how DNA structure, function, and differences in gene expression manifest as variation among organisms. At the molecular level, it integrates elements from genetics, genomics, biochemistry, cell biology…

Biological systematics aims to classify the immense diversity of organisms on Earth based on their evolutionary relationships and shared derived traits that reflect common descent. We use phylogenomics to reconstruct the…
