Biological Sciences plays an important part in our leading research on biodiversity and environmental science. You’ll be taught by experts from UCL and our partner institutes.
A discussion on the major steps of phylogenetic analysis, including identification of orthologous genes or proteins, multiple sequence alignment, and choice of substitution models and inference methodologies.
Three Biosciences students won 1st Prize in the UCL Student Covid-19 Recovery Challenge with their idea to prevent plastic pollution from increased PPE use as result of the pandemic.
Tissue-specific transcriptional and proteomic profiling of long-lived Drosophila dilp2-3,5 mutants identified tissue-specific regulation of >3600 transcripts and >3700 proteins. Most expression changes were regulated post-transcriptionally in the fat body, and only in mutants.
