WELCOME TO THE PACIFIC BIOSCIENCES RESEARCH CENTER

The Pacific Biosciences Research Center is a center of excellence in
interdisciplinary biological sciences, with its research, training, and outreach
activities focused on the unique opportunities found in Hawaiʻi and throughout
the Pacific Islands.  PBRC has received national and international recognition
as a leader in integrated mountain-to-sea science, and uses as its guiding
principle the concept of the Hawaiian ahupuaʻa, a self-sustaining unit
highlighting the interrelationship between land and sea, and a communal
responsibility for the land.  PBRC follows the ethic of sustainability with
respect for the culture, values, and limited natural resources of Hawaiʻi.
