Welcome from the Chair


Welcome to Biology at ECU! As a recent arrival I feel fortunate to find myself in a biologically extraordinary region working with a tremendous group of scientists and educators. Our faculty has been widely recognized--by ECU and the UNC system with numerous awards, nationally with competitive grants, and internationally through publications in prestigious journals and awards from professional societies.

We are united by an enthusiasm for research, a commitment to serving our community and region, and a passion for communicating our knowledge and skills to students. Our students are as accomplished as our faculty and some of their achievements are highlighted on this site. We encourage former students to keep in touch and prospective students to visit. I look forward to hearing from you.
