The genetic and developmental control of complex nanostructure formation in butterfly wing scales
Butterfly wings are natural wonders, covered in colourful scales that are used for signaling, thermoregulation and to help with aerodynamic performance. Read more
Resolving the role of seasonally fluctuating balancing selection in maintaing adaptive genetic diversity in wild butterfly populations
Primary Supervisor: Dr Vicencio Oostra. Co-Supervisor(s): Dr Matteo Fumagalli. Funding: China Scholarship Council (CSC). Read more
How Does Ecological Persistence Depend on Rapid Evolutionary Responses? Using Deep Learning to Understand How Genomic Variation Determines Climate Eesponses in UK Butterflies.
*Please note that this PhD will be hosted at University College London*. With ongoing climate change, ecological communities either have to migrate or rapidly evolve to cope with warmer temperatures. Read more
Genetic and developmental basis of transparency in butterflies
The wings of most butterflies and moths are covered in tile-like scales which make them opaque, with scale pigmentation responsible for their intricate colourful patterns. Read more
The potential for private investment in Biodiversity Net Gain and its ability to deliver on Local Nature Recovery Strategies
Supervisors. Professor Stephen Willis (Durham University). Dr Katherine Simpson (University of Glasgow). Jim Cokill (Durham Wildlife Trust). Read more
Communicating Biodiversity Change through LLMs: Can AI Turn ‘Hard’ Data ‘Soft’ to Motivate Pro-Environmental Behaviour?
. *Please note that this PhD will be hosted at the University of Reading*. We are experiencing a revolution in biodiversity monitoring with vast amounts of new data collected from oceans, freshwater rivers and lakes, the atmosphere and soils. Read more
