Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden

Professor Reznick is an internationally renowned scientist in the field of evolutionary biology. His research helped bring about a paradigm shift in how we think about evolution and how we incorporate it in empirical research – from understanding evolution as a historical process to exploring the consequences of evolution as a contemporary process that happens on the same time frame as ecological interactions. During his stay in Germany, Professor Reznick will work on research to understand the genetic basis of placental evolution.
