The Chemical Biology Initiative (CBI) is designed to stimulate and encourage interdisciplinary biomedical/biotechnology research, technological development, and education at the cross roads of chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering at the University of Minnesota. Our central goal is to enable the development of a deeper understanding of biology that can be applied to the improvement of health. Seminar Announcements: We are sponsoring a series of semiweekly seminars and research talks with the goal to provide a venue for enhancing dialogue and research interactions across the interface of chemistry and biology. See seminar schedule.
