Project Description
Molecular mechanisms behind evolution of the modern yeast traits. You will run longitudinal experiments in several growth vessels (fermentors). Evolving samples will be analyzed by a variety of techniques: classical microbiology and genetic techniques, pulse-field electrophoresis, micro-array techniques and proteome analysis to follow gene-expression, and HPLC and gas analyzer analysis to follow the appearance of fermentation products. This project will attempt to answer the question if we can run the tape of the evolutionary history again and at the end obtain the same molecular structures and organisms.
Postgraduate Scholarship in Biology, within the discipline of Molecular Genetics with placement at the Department of Cell and Organism Biology, Faculty of Science
