Student Enrichment Glen Sparks Research at Saint Louis University is wide and varied. It includes a field of scholarly activity that focuses on readying SLU students for excellence in the classroom and beyond. Any biology student at SLU is quick to recognize the name of Gregor Mendel and his impact on science. During the 1800s Mendel's work with pea plants became the foundation for modern genetics, establishing theories of heredity and laws of inheritance. Today, genetic science is one of the most exciting research fields, and Saint Louis University researchers are on the cutting edge.
All research has an impact, but some researchers see the results of their work almost immediately.
This project is designed to move the University forward in the areas of academics, facilities and information technology.
