Drift, Mutation, and Evolution by Michael Lynch
Offered By: International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fundamental concepts of genetic drift, mutation, and evolution in this comprehensive lecture by Michael Lynch at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the mechanisms driving genetic change and evolutionary processes over the course of 1 hour and 40 minutes. Gain insights into how random genetic drift, various types of mutations, and evolutionary forces shape the genetic makeup of populations and species over time. Examine the interplay between these factors and their impact on biodiversity and adaptation. Learn about cutting-edge research and theoretical frameworks in population genetics and evolutionary biology. Enhance your understanding of the complex dynamics that govern the evolution of life on Earth through this in-depth presentation by a leading expert in the field.
