Hubbard Center for Genome Studies
The Hubbard Center for Genome Studies (HCGS) was established in 2001 to provide a focal point for genomic research at UNH. Led by Director Kelley Thomas, HCGS is devoted to understanding the structure and function of genomes from across the spectrum of life, and has a particularly strong focus on marine and aquatic organisms. Research in the center takes a holistic approach to molecular biology and evolution by studying the complete genome and its protein expression patterns
In addition to being an invaluable resource in advancing the research of faculty in the UNH College of Life Sciences and Agriculture, the Hubbard Center for Genome Studies provides an opportunity for students to learn genomic techniques using new technology. It also encourages and supports the development of New Hampshire's biotechnology industry, and plays an important role in informing the public about the societal and bioethical issues of genome research.
