Project Details

Description

Evolution has shaped life as we know it. Our research uses theoretical, computational and experimental approaches to understand and predict the structure and behaviour of biological systems and their evolution as environments change, organisms mutate and selection occurs.

To the right are links to the research pages of academics working in this area. Many of us are also part of either the Ecology and Evolution group in the School of Natural Sciences or the in Evolution, Infection and Genomic Science (EIGen) division of the School of Biology. Both are linked below. If you are interested in joining us, PhD and other opportunities currently available are listed on individual researchers' pages (typically under the 'opportunities' tab).
