We need your support. The Genomics & Microbiology Research Fund finances genetics and microbiology research at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, under the guidance of Head, Dr. Julie Horvath. Funds go directly to discover and research species relationships, health, disease, and conservation as well as to engage Museum visitors, students and the next generation of scientists.
