Genomics and Molecular Biology

我的研究目标是：1）阐明突变，复制和缺失在全基因组复制后再生基因组稳定性中的作用; 2）了解基因复制在增加物种专业化和多样化以及健康和疾病中的作用; 3）探索遗传系统中的新技术、策略和计算机分析，并将其与生物化学和生理功能联系起来。研究将针对鲑鱼的再二倍化、生物多样性和功能复杂性，特别强调免疫系统和与温度耐受性、性别决定、疾病和健康相关的基因。

Objectives of my research are to: 1) elucidate the role of mutation, duplications and deletions in regenerating genome stability after a whole genome duplication; 2) understand the role of gene duplication in the generation of increased species specialization and diversification as well as health, and disease; 3) explore new technologies, strategies, and computer analyses in genetic systems and relate them to biochemical and physiological functions. Research will target salmonid re- diploidization, biodiversity, and functional complexity, with particular emphasis on the immune system and genes associated with temperature tolerance, sex determination, disease and health.
