The major goal of functional genetics and genomics is to understand mechanistically how genes control fundamental biological processes. To carry out these studies, we have built a strong community of experimental biologists who use a variety of established and unconventional model organisms to uncover the mechanisms regulating development and regeneration, homeostasis and aging, physiology and metabolism, and behavior.
