About

Walter Salzburger is a Full Professor at the University of Basel, Switzerland. His research encompasses evolutionary genetics, focusing on the gene repertoire of teleost fishes, including studies on opsins and immune system genes. He has published extensively on the dietary diversity of cichlids in Lake Tanganyika and the evolutionary implications of gene duplications and genome rearrangements in fishes.
