Professor of Biology Philip Meneely, who came to Haverford in 1995, has been working with the nematode worm C. elegans for more than 40 years. Most recently, his lab has studied how genes interact with each other to produce their effects.

Campus

The Center for Peace and Global Citizenship

The Center for Peace and Global Citizenship grew out of faculty and student interests that emerged in the late 1990s. Since then, the Center has developed and expanded into a flourishing nexus of social responsibility, civic engagement, and global peace work, both on campus and in the greater community.
