Scientists at the BRC investigate the biodiversity present among some of the least understood organisms.
These include: microbes, including bacteria, archaeans, eukaryotes and viruses.
This research addresses fundamental questions about the interrelationships and evolutionary histories of microbial life forms using genomic, molecular, and detailed morphological comparative approaches.
