The
Department of Biology, housed in four floors of Weyandt Hall, is
equipped to support a diversity of research in both the laboratory
and the field. Facilities are available for housing experimental
animals and plants (i.e., animal rooms, controlled environmental
chambers, greenhouse). A laboratory for experimentation with pathogenic
organisms is available, as is modern research instrumentation including
refrigerated and ultra-centrifuges, spectrophotometers, thermocyclers,
real-time PCR, ClassII/B transfer hood for plant tissue culture,
photographic equipment, fluorescence microscopes, and a scanning
electron microscope. The department houses a computer room, a herbarium,
and museums of ornithology and mammalogy. A machine shop and electronics
shop plus associated technicians are available to faculty and students
for construction of research apparatus. The department uses six
12-15 passenger vans for teaching and research. |
