Research Areas

The Biological Sciences building houses facilities of the biological and health sciences departments. In addition to a wide variety of equipment in individual research laboratories, departmental facilities include optical and electron microscopes, darkroom, environmental chambers, scintillation counters and ultracentrifuges, a greenhouse and a 60-acre wooded preserve, an animal housing facility, and more. Other Life Science departments at Wright State as well as Dayton area institutions (including Wright-Patt Air Force Base, several facilities affiliated with the School of Medicine, and other universities in the Miami Valley consortium) provide further ready access to collaborators, expertise, and equipment.
