Dear colleagues,

Biology Thursday seminar kicks off this week, 12:15 on zoom (link below), with

Ass. Prof. Elina Immonen from the Evolutionary Biology Centre, Uppsala University, on
“How to evolve to resolve sexual conflict?”

Abstract: Patterns of genetic variance generated by the largely shared genome of males and females may lead to evolutionary constraints when the sexes are subject to divergent selection. In this talk, I show how evolvable sexual dimorphism is under different forms of sexually divergent selection - both in body size and gene expression - and how the genetic architecture matters.

The current version of the seminar program is up at thursdayseminarbiology.wordpress.com/ - as you can see there are still some empty slots, so I’m very keen to hear your suggestions on who to invite as speakers!

See you in zoom on Thursday,

best wishes,

Heikki
