Expery Omollo, a postdoc in the Li Lab, discusses his work studying how to disrupt transcription.

The MIT Department of Biology is home to approximately 180 undergraduates, 200 graduate students, 200 postdoctoral researchers, and more than 60 world-renowned faculty. Our research focuses on 10 major research areas: Biochemistry, biophysics, and structural biology; cancer biology; cell biology; computational biology; genetics; human disease; immunology; microbiology; neurobiology; and stem cell and developmental biology.

We promote a highly collaborative environment that allows for a free exchange of ideas across research areas and academic disciplines. The result is a rigorous, creative, dynamic culture in which scientists and students tackle the important problems and questions in biology and related fields. Our location — at the heart of one of the world’s most important biotech/pharma hubs in Kendall Square — creates exciting opportunities for research, employment, and the commercialization of new discoveries.
