Multicellular organisms must evolve mechanisms to suppress cancer formation prior to reproduction, and we propose that the organizational structure of normal epithelium is one such strategy.

It emphasizes evolutionary theory, foundations of ecology and genetics, focused study of particular organisms or groups of organisms, and the dynamics of evolutionary principles in scientific inquiry.

A new study has revealed the existence of bifunctional diterpene cyclases/synthases (DCSs) in bacteria, offering compelling ...

We address these questions with a mix of theoretical (modelling) and experimental approaches. We use experimental evolution in the lab with the beetle Tribolium castaneum to unravel the evolutionary ...

The Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology is home to research and scholarship exploring the principles driving ecological and evolutionary processes, including molecular mechanisms, genetics, ...

This prestigious scholarship program celebrates and supports outstanding early- to mid-career Ph.D. ecologists from groups ...

A genomic study of human and selected nonhuman primate centromeres has revealed their unimaginable diversity and speed of ...
