Organizational History
The School of Biological Sciences began as a division of the College of Arts, Letters and Sciences when the University of
California, Irvine opened in October 1965. As of 2002 the School comprises four academic departments and several additional
research units.
The Department of Psychobiology, organized as a part of Biological Sciences at the time of the School's opening, was concerned
with the biology of the nervous system and behavior, emphasizing the adaptive aspects of neural and behavioral plasticity.
In 1999 the Department changed its name to the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior.
The Center for Pathobiology, created in 1968, was dedicated to the understanding of disease in all types of plant and animal
life. It was a part of the Department of Organismic Biology, and offered a focus for many activities in the School of Biological
Sciences, notably developmental biology, pathobiology, entomology, and genetics. Its collaborative programs brought other
scientists to the Center for extended periods of time. The Center ended in 1980 and its activities were absorbed by the Department
of Developmental and Cell Biology.
The Developmental Biology Center (DBC), a part of the Department of Developmental and Cell Biology, was organized in 1980.
The DBC provides focus and support for research in developmental biology in several departments within the School of Biological
Sciences and the College of Medicine. Research activities are concerned with identifying activities of cells that convert
fertilized eggs into fully formed and functional organisms. DBC sponsors regular seminars, organizes conferences and hosts
visiting scientists.
