PhD – Rapid Evolution in Communities – Czech Republic
Biology Centre CAS invites prospective candidates for a four-year PhD Studentship funded by ERC grant of Jan Hrcek to explore exciting questions on the interface of population genetics and community ecology. It is increasingly clear that evolution can be rapid, with important traits changing within a few generations. But it is only beginning to be understood […]
The mystery of why diseases do not affect men and women in the same way
It is no secret that men and women face unique health challenges because of their genes. But to truly understand and address these challenges, are we relying too much on genetic factors that affect diseases, symptoms and health outcomes? Beyond genetics and medical factors, what role do other factors play in the evolution of our […]
Is it in our DNA to be vegetarian? CORDIS answers
The dietary choice to go vegetarian may be influenced by genes. Whether it’s for health, moral or religious reasons, Europeans are shifting away from traditional meat to plant-based alternatives. For many, that means adopting a vegetarian diet. But it’s easier for some than others. Science may now know why we choose the food we put […]
