Wednesday 24th October we encourage everyone to visit the CIGENE seminar. We have a special invited speaker, Dr. Camille Berthelot, who will present an in-depth analysis of gene expression and regulation across mammalian evolution. Please […]
Two new papers out now on bioRxiv. One identifying the sex determination locus in Atlantic cod: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/07/04/362376 The other describing a chromosomal rearrangement associated with migration: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/07/04/361691
Duration: August 2018 – July 2022
Responsible: Sigbjørn Lien
Main objective: To explore the evolutionary consequences of transposable element activity, from large chromosome-scale structural rearrangements, through regulatory rewiring and expression …
Duration: January 2018 – June 2021
Main responsible: Simen Sandve
Main Objective: Salmonid fish, which underwent a genome duplication 100 million years ago, will be used as a model system to study the importance of genome duplication in evolution of new gene…
Duration: August 2018 – August 2022
Responsible CIGENE: Matthew Kent
