The quantitative analysis of scale-by-scale patterning in lizards by Ebrahim Jahanbakhsh & Michel Milinkovitch makes the cover of Current Biology.
In the journal Current Biology, researchers in the Department of Genetics and Evolution quantify the predictability of scale-by-scale patterns in multiple divergent species of lizards.
The 48th annual Nikon Small World Photomicrography Competition’s first place prize was awarded to Grigorii Timin, a PhD student supervised by Prof. Michel Milinkovitch from the GenEv Dpt
The team of Professors Ivan Rodriguez and Alan Carleton of the UNIGE has highlighted the great variability and continuous adaptation of olfactory neurons.
Dr. Athanasia Tzika is awarded an HFSP grant to study reptilian coloration.
This is the question posed by the new exhibition, which offers a journey through three Geneva locations. The groups of professors Birgitte Galliot, Denis Duboule, Ivan Rodriguez and Michel Milinkovitch took part in the realization of this exhibition.
We uncover the amazing parallels between ferromagnetism modeling and lizard skin colour patterning
The excavation of the archaeological site of Toumboura III has provided more than 13’000 stone artefacts resulting from the production of very specific stone tools: bifacial tools, among which small bifacial points probably intended to be hafted on wooden shafts and used as projectiles.
Prof. Scott Hooper (Ohio University, USA) discusses the importance on recent results made by Milinkovitch's Lab on elephant trunk biomechanics
Emi Nagoshi's team has identified a gene essential in the regulation of the sleep / wake cycles of Drosophila.
The Archeology and Population of Africa (APA) laboratory of the University of Geneva and partners have started a research project on food in Basse-Casamance, in southern Senegal, under the direction of Dr Anne Mayor.
Milinkovitch's lab quantitative analysis of the biomechanical and functional morphology of the elephant trunk is published today in Current Biology.
LANE lab's 3D numerical simulations of the ocellated lizard skin colour patterning are published today in Nature Communications.
Montoya's lab has traced the family tree of ray-finned fish in order to reconstruct the evolution of the protective structures of their skin.
Michel Milinkovitch-Tzika Lab sequences the Texas Rat Snake genome and suggest that a regulatory mutation of MITF causes the leucistic phenotype.
Alicia Sanchez-Mazas team has demonstrated that every population can protect itself against a broad range of viruses thanks to the two most diverse HLA immune genes in humans.
An analysis of archaeological glass beads discovered in sub-Saharan West Africa brings to light the full extent of the region’s international trade routes between the 7th and 13th centuries.
A mutation of the lavender variant of corn snake allows the Milinkovitch lab to understand the mechanisms responsible for the extraordinary variety of skin colours in vertebrates.
Wildcats in the Swiss Jura will undergo an irreversible genetic replacement by domestic cats if no preventive measures are taken.
