The department offers an interactive research community with interests in a broad range of topics, including cell biology, systems biology, biophysics, biochemistry, developmental biology, neurobiology, genetics, microbiology, computational biology, and structural biology. The appointment provides access to state of the art animal facilities and core facilities for imaging, proteomics, genomics and bioinformatics. The Department is also closely associated with science initiatives at Harvard such as the Center for Brain Science, the Center for Systems Biology, the Harvard Stem Cell Institute, the Broad Institute, and the Center for Nanoscale Systems, and provides opportunities for interactions with the broader Harvard community. We strongly encourage applications from women and minority candidates.
