About

Thomas Flatt is a Full Professor of Evolutionary Biology at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland. His research focuses on evolutionary biology, particularly in the areas of gene expression, transcriptomic approaches, and the evolutionary implications of diet and genetics in model organisms like Drosophila and Caenorhabditis elegans. His recent publications explore themes such as polymorphism, fecundity, and longevity, contributing significantly to our understanding of evolutionary processes.
