We explore the intricate relationship between genetics and environmental factors in shaping offspring health. By studying germline development, placental function, and the impact of early-life exposures, we aim to uncover how parental health influences disease risk across generations.
Identifying environmental drivers of variation in natural selection and population dynamics
Interactions between marine biodiversity, environmental conditions (including climate) and society.
We study transcriptional and non-transcriptional functions of insect and human POU/Oct transcription factors in development, cell division and cancer. One project focuses on non-transcriptional roles of POU2F factors during mitosis. Another project focuses on alternative protein translation of a POU3F member and the mechanisms of tissue-specific regulation of Stop Codon Readthrough (SCR). We use the fruit fly Drosophila as a powerful genetic model organism taking advantage of its extensive genetic toolbox, in combination with high-throughput expression analyses, high resolution microscopy and live-cell imaging.
We study how biological form emerges during embryonic development. Our goal is to deconstruct the mechanisms used by cells to compute, transmit, and retain spatiotemporal information in the body. We aim to employ gene editing with sequencing- and microscopy-based readouts for quantitative and functional modelling of regulatory networks.
The historical ecology of Scandinavian cultural landscapes.
We aim to develop an integrated understanding of how sexual selection influences animal evolution.
Planktonic partnerships, or symbioses, between eukaryotic and prokaryotic plankton that are major players in the Nitrogen and Carbon cycles of the World’s oceans
Our group applies computational and omics methods to study mammalian transcriptome regulation, with special emphasis on microRNAs.
Microbial interactions in aquatic environments and the effect of these interactions on the carbon cycle.
The immune system that kills disease-causing microbes and heals tissues, and the DNA repair system that maintains gene expression are essential for life. However, they require careful regulation to prevent the destruction of own tissues. The goal of my research is to better understand these systems and find new strategies in the treatment of diseases.
We are investigating the possibility of cleaning soil and water from heavy metals and PFAS using plants, so-called phytoremediation. We also investigate how we can reduce the cadmium and arsenic content in food crops by the use of phytoremediation and silca.
Evolutionary plant biogeography
We do research on arthropod ecology and evolution, with a particular focus on trophic interactions.
How biodiversity evolves and is distributed globally using an experimental and phylogenetic approach.
Landscape ecology in boreal forests and tropical mosaic landscapes
