Elucidating the mechanisms of toxicity of environmentally relevant compounds

We are generating and analysing genomes for species across the genus Caenorhabditis and many other Rhabditina. We aim to generate chromosomally complete, “telomere to telomere” assemblies, and to use these to explore pattern and process in genome, chromosome and gene evolution. We are always happy to collaborate to sequence additional species and strains of free-living and parasitic nematodes – contact us!
