Molecular Mechanisms in Evolution

The conference investigates how molecular changes connect genetic variation with evolving traits. Research spans biophysical and biochemical mechanisms, cells, development, physiology and behaviour. Talks examine the origins of mutations and the ways they alter phenotypes within populations and across evolutionary timescales, aiming to explain both conserved features and biological diversity. Attendance requires a bachelor’s degree in science or engineering, or an accepted equivalent. Applications are subject to selection and available capacity.
