TheLab seek to understand the genetic factors contributing to genomic variation and phenotypic diversity. To this end, we employ molecular and bioinformatic tools to study evo...
Evolutionary Dynamics and Population Genetics
Natural selection and other evolutionary forces lead to particular patterns of evolutionary dynamics, and they leave characteri...
The Molecular Basis of Vertebrate Evolution. Naturally occurring species show spectacular differences in morphology, physiology, behavior, disease susceptibility, and life span...
They are using the latest DNA sequencing technology to read the genetic makeup of cancer cells within tumours in ever greater detail, teasing out patterns of evolution (evoluti...
Work include (i) understanding the evolutionary relationships among different prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms; (ii) Understanding the cellular functions of these lineage-s...
Study the process of Adaptive Evolution, during which species adopt novel traits to overcome challenges. We retrace the evolutionary histories of genomic elements to determine...
Using these high quality genomes we explore
the evolutionary history of genes and species, building phylogenetic trees of life
the contrasting roles of horizontal gene tran...
In the Svardal lab they are interested how the astonishing natural diversity we see on earth came into being, by which forces it formed and how it is changing today. Hence, the...
Lab are included within the Genomics, Bioinformatics and Evolution group of the UAB, and collaborate closely with other researchers in the Barcelona area, such as Xavier Estivi...
The Vicoso group investigates how sex chromosomes evolve over time, and what biological forces are driving their patterns of differentiation.
The Vicoso group is interested...
