A Sneak Peak at the Lab

In Fall of 2006, I'll be joining the Evolution and Ecology Group in the Department of Biology at the University of Rochester. I've posted some pre-renovation photos to give you an idea of what the lab looks like. There will be plenty of bench space for molecular work, and the latest equipment begin to arrive in the Summer and Fall of '06. I'm particularly excited about the lizard room, which is attached to the molecular lab and will provide a unique opportunity to conduct genetic and behavioral experiments with live animals. - REG, Dec. 21, 2005

Having just arrived back from a trip to Rochester, I am happy to report that renovations are nearly complete and the lab looks great! - REG, May 23, 2006


The lab will be located at the University of Rochester's main campus in Hutchison Hall, which overlooks the Genesee River. The city can be seen in the top left corner.

The main lab on May 23, 2006. Renovations are nearly complete! A wall has been added to the back of the room to provide space for noisy equipment such as ultra-cold freezers.	A view of the wet lab prior to its renovation in January 2006.

The lizard room is almost finished as of May 23rd. We're mostly just waiting on some electrical work before it will be ready to go.	Attached to the wet lab is a lizard room that will be equiped with caging and climate control to accomodate live animals.
