Hi! Some of you might recognise me from my many stays here during my PhD with my suitcase full of flies. However, I’ll be here more permanently this time as a postdoc with Jessica Abbott continuing the work from my PhD.
I did my PhD with Ted Morrow at University of Sussex with the main focus on sexual antagonism and its impact on sex chromosomes in Drosophila melanogaster. I did two main projects, one long-term evolution experiment still ongoing in Jessica’s lab and a shorter evolution experiment looking at coevolution between the sex chromosomes.
