  Health > Health Research at the National Labs

Research at the three UC-managed national laboratories advances human health by using our scientific and engineering capabilities to focus on areas of genomics, disease susceptibility and prevention, and improved health care and medical biotechnology. The convergence of biological, physical and computational sciences has given us the tools to begin understanding biological complexity and use this knowledge to great benefit in many national security, public health and environmental applications.
