Biotechnology Center Memebers
The Biotechnology Center Memebers are drawn from the faculty at Western Kentucky University that are interested in participating in a research community centered around biotechnology. Many members are part of the Department of Biology but membership is open to faculty from any department that can benefit from interactions with the biotechnology community at WKU (See Membership Application).
The Biotechnology Center has ties, through it members and their collaborations, to a number of other research programs. These collaborators include members of the Biodiversity Center house at WKU, The Kentucky Biomedical Infastructure Network (KBRIN), the USDA, and Sygen Inc.
