Welcome to the biology department! Our department comprises a dynamic group of researchers in the field of biological sciences and with internationally recognized strengths in bioinformatics, comparative physiology, ecotoxicology, macroecology and experimental evolution. In addition to our bachelor's degree in biology, we offer the interdisciplinary program in biomedical sciences. We also participate in other interdisciplinary undergraduate programs, including those in environmental sciences and biopharmaceutical sciences. At the graduate level, we offer master's and doctoral programs in biology and contribute to collaborative programs in chemical and environmental toxicology, bioinformatics and environmental sustainability.

The state-of-the-art laboratories at the Biosciences Complex provide an unparalleled experience for our undergraduate students. Easy access to natural ecosystems such as the Mer Bleue peat bog and Gatineau Park complete the laboratory environment by providing opportunities for field work. Research laboratories in adjacent buildings house state-of-the-art analytical and microscopy facilities, as well as greenhouses, an aviary, and the aquatic species laboratory for fish, amphibians and reptiles.
