About the section
The Genome Biology section has a strong aqua- and agri- research focus, and possesses expertise in genetics, evolutionary and comparative genomics, bioinformatics and systems biology.
The section has an overarching aim to improve our understanding of how genetic and epigenetic variation in the genome links to different phenotypes and affects the evolution of species and populations.
We possess key strengths in the application of ‘omics’ data to understand the genetic architecture of complex traits, and we house excellent wet and dry lab facilities for automated high-throughput omics, and bioinformatics.
The section has approximately 40 members in a range of roles, including core staff, postdocs and researchers, PhDs, research assistants, technical and administrative staff.
