The Evolution of Gene Expression
Photo by Tony Rinaldo
As a Radcliffe fellow, Thomas Lenormand RI '18 is working on the evolution of gene expression. For theoretical and historical reasons, modern evolutionary theory has little incorporated the detailed mechanisms of gene regulation. Gene expression regulation, however, is now central to most fields of biology. He plans to bridge this interdisciplinary gap and set the foundation of a comprehensive evolutionary theory of gene regulation evolution.
