23.01.2022 Time for a quick 15 minute coffee break... #GSAOnline20

23.01.2022 PhD position: Sex chromosome evolution in a viviparous reptile with genotypic and temperature-dependent sex determination Project theme: Sex-determination controls the most significant variation within animals- the division into males and females. While the different systems of sex-determination involving genetic or environmental control are relatively well understood, transitions between these systems remain enigmatic in evolutionary biology. This project aims to address ...Continue reading

21.01.2022 Next up is Sonia Shah from @IMBatUQ, winner of this year’s Alan Wilton Award for Early Career Research. Follow @soniashahpereir to learn more about her work on the genetics of cardiovascular disease and using genetics to predict unintentional side effects of drugs #GSAOnline20
