Overview
In the course you will study how and why genomes change as a function of time and shifts in the environment, such the use of antibiotics, climate change or breeding for desired characteristics. The course will give you a thorough molecular understanding of the forces acting on genome content and organization and allow you to make evolutionary and functional interpretations and predictions of genetic variations between individuals. Tools learned include the analysis of linkage and genome-wide associations and the use of experimental and directed evolution to mold life into desired forms. Key subjects are molecular evolution, evolutionary and comparative genomics, population genomics and genetic epidemiology. The course is taught in English.
