EpiDiverse - Doing a Doctorate at ecSeq
Posted on April 17, 2019
Adam Nunn is Doing his Doctorate at ecSeq
Adam holds a BSc in Biological Sciences from University of Portsmouth and a double MSc in Bioinformatics and Biology from Lund University, Sweden. Between the bachelor's and the master's degree, he worked for four years as a lead research scientist for a UK-based company where he focused on developing biological alternatives to chemical pesticides. In 2017 he joined ecSeq Bioinformatics GmbH for his PhD studies. His work is fully funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network EpiDiverse and in cooperation with Prof. Peter F. Stadler, holder of the bioinformatics chair at Leipzig University.
Linking Ecology, Molecular Biology and Bioinformatics in plant epigenetic research
EpiDiverse is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network aimed at the study of epigenetic variation in wild plant species. The network joins research groups from ecology, molecular (epi)genetics and bioinformatics to explore the genomic basis, molecular mechanisms and ecological significance of epigenetic variation in natural plant populations. This project received funding from the EU Horizon 2020 program under Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 764965 ... read more
