Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

In the first part of the lecture the theoretical foundations, scientific questions, and research domains of EvoDevo will be presented, and the general relation between genetic and phenotypic evolution will be discussed. In the second part specific examples of recent experimental approaches to fundamental questions in EvoDevo will be presented: conservation and diversification of molecular systems and developmental processes in axis evolution, evolution of new limb and appendage structures, changes in cis-regulation and protein-coding parts, etc.

Assessment and permitted materials

Written exam with 4-6 open questions.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The exam is passed when half of the possible points have been obtained. Grades will be given in equal spacing.

Examination topics

Everything taught and discussed during the lectures can be examination topics.

Reading list

Further reading is provided during the first lecture. Specific paper references will be provided on the slides.
