The college is integrating cell culture techniques into functional biology laboratory curricula by developing a tissue culture facility. The introduction of these techniques is vital to improving student comprehension of lecture material through hands-on laboratory experiences. Course work affected includes Immunology, Cell Biology, and Developmental Biology; in addition, the equipment enables students to perform a wide variety of senior research projects in these areas. The college's goal is to provide in vitro models designed to enhance biology students' understanding of immunity, cell physiology/biology, and molecular biology. A thorough understanding of these areas is critical for undergraduates pursuing medical and research careers. The major equipment obtained through this project includes a laminar flow hood, a climate controlled (CO2) incubator, a refrigerated table-top centrifuge, a microplate reader, and an inverted microscope.

学院通过开发组织培养设备，将细胞培养技术纳入功能生物学实验室课程。这些技术的介绍对于通过动手实验经验提高学生对讲课材料的理解是至关重要的。受影响的课程包括免疫学、细胞生物学和发育生物学；此外，该设备使学生能够在这些领域进行各种各样的高级研究项目。该学院的目标是提供体外模型，旨在增强生物学学生对免疫、细胞生理学/生物学和分子生物学的理解。对这些领域的透彻理解对于从事医学和研究工作的本科生来说至关重要。通过该项目获得的主要设备包括层流罩，气候控制（CO2）培养箱，冷藏台式离心机，微孔板读取器和倒置显微镜。
