Please remember that this list is not rigid or exhaustive. If you want to engineer an area of concentration that is not listed, that is fine. Any Biology faculty member may serve as your advisor, even if they are not listed under a specific area of concentration (provided they feel comfortable advising you). Our hope is that together with your advisor you will design a major that fulfills your unique interests and goals.
