Research in Zoology 

The Zoology Department at UBC vigorously promotes integrative research in biology and actively participates in several interdisciplinary programs.  There are more than 50 principal investigators in the Department, organized within several broad categories but with substantial overlap in interests.  Departmental research personnel also include post-doctoral researchers, graduate students and numerous undergraduate and technical research assistants.  Below you will find links to the research programs currently underway in the Zoology Department, arranged according to general area of interest. (Note that faculty may be listed under more than one heading.)
