Organsim Biology describes the molecular, structural and physiological mechanisms defining an organism. It also includes studies of how organisms interact.
The NL-faculty hosts a number of departments within this broad area, holding a competence ranging from protein structure determination to nutrient cycling in complete ecosystems. Organism Biology aims at strengthening and coordinating graduate training within the research area.
Organism Biology is a faculty funded umbrella organization arranging activities for PhD students registered to their home departments.
The main goal is to offer high quality course activities and access to formal and informal networks. Shared methodology is in focus, as well as broader biology seminar series. We promote an increased exchange bewteen departments, to help PhD students develop depth and width.
