Speakers
Irene Gallego Romero, Principal research Fellow (University of Melbourne, Australia)
who researches human evolution and diseases using primate genomes, transcriptomes, and iPS cells. Her specialty is molecular cell biology and genomic information.
Emily Jane McTavish, Associate Professor (California State University, Merced CA)
who develops a program for creating molecular phylogenetic trees using large-scale base sequences using next-generation sequencers and specializes in evolutionary genetics, molecular systematics, and theory.
Jonathan Hughes, Postdoctoral Researcher (California State University, Riverside CA)
who researches the evolutionary genetics of voles with XO sex chromosomes that have lost their Y chromosomes in Assistant Professor Polly Campbell’s laboratory and specializes in evolutionary genetics.
Mieko Kono, Postdoctoral Researcher (The Graduate University for Advanced Studies, Hayama)
who researches the symbiotic mechanism of lichens through molecular evolutionary genome analysis, cell experiments, field surveys, and specializes in evolutionary genetics.
