 explores molecular diversity and how molecular structure determines biological function in plants, animals, fungi, and microbes of significance to agriculture. He studies the origin, structure, and evolution of genomes, proteomes, RNomes, and functionomes for applications including bioengineering, biomedicine, and systems biology.

Caetano-Anollés' atelier of evolutionary bioinformatics and plant bioinformation focuses on creative ways to mine, visualize and integrate data from structural and functional genomic research. His group is particularly interested in the evolution of macromolecular structure and networks in biology, the reconstruction of evolutionary history, the incorporation of evolutionary considerations in genomic research, the study of levels and patterns of genome-wide mutation, and processes that are linked to co-evolutionary phenomena (such as plant pathogenesis and symbiosis). In particular, his research has been productive in two specific areas, the evolution of the structure of macromolecules and the molecular basis of biodiversity.

Wendy Puryear is a molecular virologist at Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University with a strong interest in viral evolution and adaptation, particularly how host and environmental factors can impact overall viral fitness and influence viral evolution. Her current research aims to better understand how influenza adapts from an avian host to a mammalian host, as well as the role of environmental stability in allowing the virus to persist and transmit across species. Current work centers heavily on North Atlantic grey seals, seabirds, and the coastal environment.
