Thu, June 05, 2025 | 5 pm | Natural History Collections as windows to understand and monitor biodiversity. [28.05.25]
Location: Schloss Hohenheim, Balkonsaal
How do species form and persist in changing environments? Although these evolutionary processes are hard to infer from well-differentiated species, they can be observed in closely related taxa. We use genomic methods in hybridizing species (e.g., amphibians, reptiles, fishes, cephalopods, insects) to identify key traits and genes involved in these processes. By leveraging natural history and monitoring collections we can understand the drivers of genomic diversity within species over time, reaffirming the role of Natural History Museums to respond to modern scientific and societal challenges.
