For International Women and Girls in Science Day, Feb. 11, we celebrate some of our laboratory leaders who are taking research to new heights.

At UCSF, we believe that solving the most daunting health care questions depends on great research. Our work on groundbreaking drugs and pioneering therapies is built years earlier, on work at the cellular and molecular level. We call it discovery science.

Can the enzymes behind every living thing adapt to climate change? How soon will we be able to mimic pancreases in a lab to treat diabetes patients? And can we stop the next killer pandemic by understanding virus evolution?
