Research
The Department’s research programs span levels of organization from molecular genetics to ecosystem function. A special emphasis is the strong linkage between basic research and application, both within and between laboratories.
Our research programs, in turn, provide close support to the department’s award-winning Extension programs in:
- Pest management
- Urban, structural, and green industries pest management;
- Pesticide education, assessment and policy
