Making Biology Come Alive
Reflecting the University of California’s three-part fundamental mission of Teaching, Research and Public Service, the UCI School of Biological Sciences research programs are world-class. Faculty, graduate students and many undergraduates participate in cutting-edge research on a wide variety of subjects, including:
- Health-related issues such as cancer and infectious diseases
- Neurodegeneration, dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, learning and memory
- Stem cell therapies
- Environmental and evolutionary studies
- Science teacher education
Funding Fuels Our Research
As biologists, faculty in the School of Biological Sciences investigate the underlying principles of nature and use their discoveries to bring about a better tomorrow. In order to produce ground-breaking discoveries, funding is necessary. From assisting with complex proposals, arranging reviews by technical experts and matching opportunities to faculty members, the Research Development Team assists in navigating funding opportunities and submit competitive proposals.
