In biology, it's sometimes said that form follows function; the shape of a protein can have a major impact on how it works, or a herd of animals might behave in a particular way. But new work has ...

Yeast geneticists report they have developed a novel tool -- dubbed 'the telomerator' -- that could redefine the limits of synthetic biology and advance how successfully living things can be ...

The grand ideas of synthetic biology — like bringing back the woolly mammoth — seem very far away. But oftentimes I find that ideas that seem futuristic are already around us, like having a cochlear ...

Students pursuing the Bachelor of Arts degree in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EBIO) at CU Boulder study both ecology and evolutionary biology. Ecology seeks to understand the processes that ...

The Class of 2026 Capstone Experience Plan form can be completed here. The Department of Biology cannot promise that a student will get her or his choice(s), but the faculty will try to accommodate ...
