Biology Students Learn Through Research 

Biology students Kimberly Sacaza 23, Alex Pedroza 23 and Christine Wong 23 conducted laboratory research under professor Christos Dimos’ guidance. During this project, students investigated plant-pathogen interactions in order to develop disease-resistant crops that are less dependent on environment-harming chemicals. Sacaza notes,“People think of biology as a pre-med path, but there’s so much you can do with your degree beyond practicing medicine. There’s research, there’s genetic counseling and so much more.”
