BIO5 Institute Big Questions. Bold Solutions. Better Tomorrows. COLLABORATIVE POWER OF ‘5’ Researchers, scientists, engineers, and clinicians brought together in a flexible and interactive way that leads to individual creativity, intellectual curiosity, learning networks, and cooperative research. From RESEARCH to IMPACT WHY INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH? • The more we know, the more we need to know • Today’s global challenges are too complex for one researcher or laboratory to tackle alone • Scientists from different disciplines must work together to find innovative solutions • An entrepreneurial culture that offers scientists the tools, resources, and partnerships to accelerate and translate research breakthroughs into new treatments, therapies, and technologies. From RESEARCH to IMPACT WHY BIO5? • Facilitating collaborative 21st century research • Bold solutions to biological challenges that will improve health and save lives • Moving innovation to market • Training our next generation of scientists From RESEARCH to IMPACT Fernando Martinez, MD Research Focus • Diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of asthma and airway disease • Role of genetic, physiological, immunological, and environmental factors as determinants of the risk for asthma in early life From RESEARCH to IMPACT Shane Snyder, PhD Research Focus • Identification of emerging water pollutants and other environmental contaminants • Analysis of environmental particulates with cutting-edge technologies From RESEARCH to IMPACT Eric Lyons, PhD Research Focus • Understanding the evolution, structure, and dynamics of genomes • Development of computational systems and cyberinfrastucture to manage and analyze genomic data in biological research From RESEARCH to IMPACT Felicia Goodrum, PhD Research Focus • Complex host-virus interactions that result in viral persistence, particularly in the case of human cytomegalovirus (CMV) • Insights into how CMV impacts human biology as the leading cause of infectious diseaserelated birth defects From RESEARCH to IMPACT BIO5.ORG You’re invited to tour the Thomas W. Keating Building, home of the BIO5 Institute
