PhD Genetics
Our PhD/MPhil Genetics programme enables you to undertake a research project that will improve understanding of Genetics.
Geneticists seek to understand how biological information is replicated, transmitted or altered and how this affects organism phenotypes, populations and evolution. Modern technologies and quantitative approaches are used to study both prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems. Projects in molecular genetics and genomics focus on how genes are organised and regulated to determine phenotypes. Transmission genetics covers how genes are transmitted and expressed from generation to generation, while studies in evolutionary and population genetics aim to understand how genes behave and change between populations over time.
Areas of study include:
molecular mechanisms controlling gene expression
genetic disorders
developmental genetics
genome organisation
chromosome structure
reproduction
behavioural genetics
population and quantitative biology
ecological and evolutionary genetics
mathematical models of inheritance and evolution.
