The Evolution and Development (evo devo) seminar series is continuing this year. Organized by PhD students and postdocs in the Department of Zoology, Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience, Department of Genetics and Department of Plant Sciences, the series covers all aspects of Evolutionary Developmental Biology and includes speakers who have had a significant impact on the field.

It consists of relatively informal lunchtime talks, which take about 45-50 minutes, followed by 10-15 min of questions and discussion. We aim to highlight the common themes underpinning the diverse and multi-disciplinary research on organisms right across the tree of life. Topics include micro- and macroevolution, embryology, developmental genetics, palaeontology and computational biology.

If you would like to arrange a meeting with a speaker on the day, please reach out to one of the organisers.
