<P>Modern biological research is a complex effort, materially aided by
the availability of support facilities to aid in the aquisition of data,
construction and maintainance of the laboratory equipment, and analysis
and interpretation of the experimental results. Laboratories are equipped
for modern research carried out in space asigned to individual faculty
members as well as in a large number of central facilities. Research
facilities are located primarily in the Biological Sciences and Chemistry
building complex on the Volker Campus, and some in the school's laboratories
on the Hospital Hill Campus.</P>
