Institute Profile
The Arizona Genomics Institute (AGI) was formed in 2002 when Dr. Rod Wing joined the School of Plant Sciences at University of Arizona . The primary focus of AGI is in the area of structural, evolutionary and functional genomics of crop plants. AGI is divided into 5 Centers each lead by a Center Leader and a senior Manager (BAC Library Construction Center, BAC/EST Resource Center, Sequencing & Physical Mapping Center [including: production sequencing and fingerprinting, and sequence finishing], Bioinformatics Center and the Evolutionary and Functional Genomics Center. AGI is housed in the state of the art Thomas W. Keating Bioresearch Building on the northeast part of campus near the Medical School. AGI currently employees about 30 scientists and is primarily funded through federal grants, private contracts, and the Bud Antle Endowed Chair in Plant Molecular Genetics.

AGI will be participating in the 9th Annual Math & Science Fun Fest (2/16-17/2012) Posted by webmaster
Tucson’s Annual Math Science Technology Funfest (MSTFF) will be featuring hands-on and informational activities aimed at getting students excited about the WONDER FULL WORLD OF PLANTS and plant science under the overarching theme of “Feeding The World”. Please come out to the Tucson Convention Center on February 16th & 17th from 9am-1pm and join the fun and excitement of teaching kids about the importance of our research and that they too can make a difference in helping solve the 9-billion people question. If interested in volunteering it’s not too late – please contact Ms. Caryl Jones (AGI’s outreach coordinator) at cjones@cals.arizona.edu, and/or Dr. Tanya Quist at tquist@cals.arizona.edu for more information. See you there!!!!!!!!
