About

Professor Kenneth Wolfe is a faculty member at University College Dublin, Ireland. His research focuses on genomic evolution, with recent articles examining topics such as the genetic code evolution in yeasts, resistance mechanisms in clinical isolates of Candida parapsilosis , and the genome analysis of various yeast species. He is actively involved in studying selfish genetic elements and the biodiversity within the subphylum Saccharomycotina .
