ISB scientists are the deep-sea divers who make sense of the mysteries of how genes, proteins and other molecules control living organisms. This research aids or enables other scientists in their work toward developing cures, treatments and preventive measures for cancers, diseases and environmental ills. The complexity of our work makes it difficult to explain, but what we do, ultimately, is pave the way for major scientific and medical achievements, making progress toward our vision for wellness.
