I'm looking for science fiction where the science is biology.

Most of Julie Czerneda's stuff fits into that description. Also, Vernor Vinge's novels Fire Upon The Deep & Deepness In The Sky has some of it although it's not the only or even the primary focus, and "Love Is The Plan The Plan Is Death" could also be described in those terms.

Thank you! I'm not familiar with either of them so I'll have to look into them.

Does Bioshock count? Also, anything that claims to be "biopunk," and Blood Music by Greg Bear. I guess you could also count Darwin's Radio, but I thought that was kind of dumb.

Mirabile, by Janet Kagan - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1141442.Mirabile

A bunch of colonists dealing with interfacing their own biology with the new planet, meanwhile a lot of their plants and animals have the codes for different things hidden in their junk genes, so for example a petunia could under certain conditions sprout a pansy seed could sprout a firefly. This was meant to be like a backup library, but they lost their index, and the viewpoint character is the 'jason' in charge of wrangling the weird and wonderful things that turn up.

Mirabile is a really good one.

Annihilation, by Jeff Vandermeer, is a recent science fiction novel. The biologist is the main character. She is in a weird, scary place. It is the first book of a trilogy. Horror elements.

Tuf Voyaging by George R R Martin, from way before Game of Thrones.

Dreamsnake by Vonda MacIntyre.

Xenogenesis trilogy by Octavia Butler might fit, and it is really interesting.
