The Department's well-equipped laboratories and field stations allow research at all levels of biological organization, from molecular to ecosystem. The Department maintains an Herbarium and an Arboretum, as well as Vertebrate and Invertebrate Biology collections. Graduate students carrying out approved zoological studies may be allocated space in the Paul Field Animal Care Building. This facility includes a quarantine area, 15 controlled-environment rooms, and two permanent outdoor enclosures. Collaboration exists between the Department of Biology and the Co-operative Freshwater Ecology Unit (located in the new Vale Living with Lakes Centre), the Northern Ontario School of Medicine, and the Regional Cancer Program of the Sudbury Regional Hospital.
