Dr. Jesus Lozano Fernandez
Lecturer in Genetics I reconstruct the distant past of major evolutionary events using genome-scale data. I am integrating evidence from disparate sources to infer the animal phylogeny and develop a timescale to date their origin and processes such as the colonisation of land. At present, I am working as a Lecturer in Genetics at the University of Barcelona, and I am a honorary researcher at the University of Bristol, keeping my former links with the Bristol's Palaeobiology Research Group. |
