The University of Toledo

Wolfe Hall

Wolfe Hall houses state-of-the-art research laboratories for the Department of Biological Sciences, Chemistry and the College of Pharmacy. The facility cost $33 million dollars and was dedicated in 1998.

All of the biosciences faculty have their research labs on the third and fourth floors of Wolfe Hall. Graduate and undergraduate students work side by side with our faculty. Wolfe Hall is adjacent to Bowman-Oddy Laboratories which houses the teaching labs.

UT Arts and Sciences Instrumentation Center

The Instrumentation Center was formed in 1985 from a grant by the Ohio State. The primary purpose of the Center is to support research activities of the Faculty of the University of Toledo by providing advice, technical assistance and access to advanced scientific equipment. This includes education and training for graduate students. Important secondary purposes are to support the research activities of other Universities, and to assist local business ventures in solving sophisticated scientific problems.

Currently, the Center provides assistance to UT researchers in the Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Engineering and Pharmacy. The Center specializes in Crystallographic studies and is the home to the Ohio Crystallographic Consortium (OCC).

Biological Sciences Teaching Labs

The south wing of Bowman-Oddy is home to the undergraduate teaching labs for the Biological Sciences Department. In summer of 2003, the labs underwent renovation. First floor labs were modernized with computer access and brand new instrumentation.  Each pair of students has access to a computer to collect data, graph results, or capture digital images.  In summer 2009, the second floor labs were updated with new laminar flow hoods.

Biological Sciences Help Center

Looking for help with any biology course? Stop in to Bowman-Oddy 1013 and talk to one of our graduate students. The Center is designed to assist students with additional resources for understanding course material. Information on particular assignments should be directed to the faculy or teaching assistants for that course.

Hours vary each semester and are posted on the door. Generally, the center is open M-F 9AM-4PM.
