Where has all of the carbon gone? Understanding the molecular mechanisms of long-term soil carbon capture

The University of Manchester Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences
Soils, while unglamorous, form the basis of the terrestrial biosphere and are ultimately the source of the majority of the food that we eat, yet fundamental aspects of how soils form and how they store carbon are poorly understood. Read more

The role of regulatory evolution in phage ecology

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health
The regulation of genes crucially determines the fitness and function of all organisms. This is particularly relevant for bacteriophages, the viruses that infect bacteria, as they rely on a tightly scheduled program for a successful infection. Read more
