Genomics, Proteomics, and Informatics
Washington State University is committed to building on its existing strengths in genomics, proteomics, and informatics. The scientists highlighted here provide a sampling of both established and recently added WSU research programs in these areas. Each of these scientists and their many collaborators both at WSU and elsewhere are making important impacts in their respective areas. A recently developed strategic plan at Washington State University identifies biotechnology as a significant focus for research development, so the current strengths are priming the system for very rapid growth.
