Welcome to the Weill Institute

Weill Institute Retreat August 2024 - Geneva, NY

Welcome to the Weill Institute for Cell & Molecular Biology at Cornell University. Since 2008, The Weill Institute has thrived as an interdisciplinary hub of life science research at Cornell. Our faculty perform cutting edge cell biological research, from basic molecular mechanisms to human diseases. We bring together faculty, students, and postdocs from outstanding programs across campus in research areas that might not otherwise engage in crosstalk. From Biomedical Engineering, Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Computational Biology, Microbiology, Molecular Biology & Genetics, to Plant Biology; we seek to provide an environment that encourages cutting-edge research and the transfer of ideas and technology.
