By rewiring cellular signaling circuitry, highly specific responses can be tailored to a wide array of process inputs. Most of the work in the March laboratory is centered in three major areas: signal transduction, metabolism, and eukaryotic-prokaryotic interactions. While his group is primarily concerned with events occurring at a subcellular level, sometimes the best solution can be found by focusing on the environment immediately around a cellular population.

Professor March teaches three introductory classes in Biological Engineering.  The first class ENGRG 1050, introduces students to the engineering college.  ENGRI 1337, looks broadly at Biological Engineering and how it is practiced. This is an introduction to the profession. The third class is an introduction to the major.  Here, we go into more detail about the mechanisms of change that drive problems and how we can harness biology as a potential solution.  We cover material , energy and momentum balances and some uses of these.

His courses include:

• ENGRG 1050 Engineering Seminar
• ENGRI 1337 Introduction to Biological Engineering
• BEE/ENGRD 2600 Principles of Biological Engineering
