The Department of Biology consists of two areas; Molecular and Cellular Biology in which the mechanisms of a variety of biological phenomena including cell differentiation, gene regulation and signal transduction etc. are investigated at the molecular and cellular level; and Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology in which diversified plants and animals are studied at various hierarchical levels. In the former division, three specific fields, Developmental Biology, Cellular Biology, and Molecular Biology, are included. In the latter are Physiology, Ecology, and Phylogeny.
