Our research aims to understand the biological mechanisms that underpin physiological and pathological states and use this knowledge to improve well-being.

We use a powerful combination of genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry and cell biology to answer questions about life and the biology of diverse organisms.

We research life’s dynamics from bacteria to whales, in alpine to ocean habitats, and as biological complexity ranges from molecules to ecosystems.

Our joint graduate schools are partnerships between the University of Auckland and New Zealand's Crown Research Institutes.
