After hearing from Nobel laureate Tom Cech about the importance of bioscience research and teaching, University of Colorado regents Monday approved a new Biofrontiers Institute that will give the discipline a larger presence on the Boulder campus.
The institute is an expansion of the Colorado Initiative in Molecular Biotechnology, which began at CU in 2003 and is now led by Cech. The institute will focus on educating the next generation of interdisciplinary scientists, beginning with its recently launched Interdisciplinary Quantitative Biology doctoral program.
