Additional Information

You’re Invited to Chris Deroux’s Master’s Thesis Defense

Join us at 3:00 PM in Biology 133 on Tuesday, March 25th for an insightful presentation by Chris DeRoux, Master’s candidate, as they discuss their research on “Genome-wide Signatures of Coevolution in Parasitic and Autotrophic Plants”.

In this seminar, Chris will explore the evolutionary interactions between parasitic and autotrophic plants at the genomic level, shedding light on how coevolution shapes their genetic landscapes. Their work provides key insights into the molecular mechanisms driving these plant interactions and their broader ecological implications.

Why Attend?

  • Discover how genetic adaptations shape plant relationships over time.
  • Explore the impact of coevolution on plant survival strategies.
  • Gain new perspectives on the evolutionary forces driving biodiversity.

Visit our website for more information on our seminars and follow us on social media for more announcements from Biology.

Don’t miss this opportunity to support Chris DeRoux and engage with fascinating research on plant evolution!
