About

The Department of Biology is located in historic Winston Hall, one of the oldest buildings on the Wake Forest Reynolda campus. Winston Hall provides teaching and research space as well as offices for faculty, graduate students and support personnel. Some of our faculty are housed, and some courses are taught, in the Wake Downtown facility at Innovation Quarter. A convenient shuttle service makes it easy to commute between the campuses.

The Department of Biology embodies Wake Forest’s Teacher-Scholar ideal, with vibrant research groups working across the spectrum of the biological sciences. We nurture this diversity and we consider it to be a great strength of the department.
