The Institute consists of 12-15 research groups, including faculty and LSI Fellows. All tenured and tenure-track faculty in the Institute have appointments in one of the university's departments; among them are molecular biology, ecology and evolutionary biology, physics, chemistry, computer science, and chemical and biological engineering, and potentially others.
