1. Adaptive divergence in fission yeast : From experimental evolution to evolutionary genomics
Abstract : How adaptation and population differentiation occur is fundamental to understand the origin of biodiversity. Work in speciation alongside the increased ease of generating genomic data have allowed the exploration of genomic changes relevant to adaptation. READ MORE

2. The Genetics of Adaptation and Evolvability in Yeast
Abstract : Evolution is the hereditary change in life forms that has shaped the divergence of all organisms that inhabit planet Earth. I used the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to study how adaptive evolution increases the fitness and changes the properties of experimental and natural yeast populations. READ MORE

3. Glycolytic oscillations in individual yeast cells
Abstract : Oscillations in the concentration of yeast glycolytic intermediates have been intensively studied since the 1950s, but these studies have so far been limited to observations of average oscillatory behavior in synchronized cultures. Hence, it has remained unknown whether the onset of oscillations is a collective property of the population which requires a high cell density, or if individual cells can oscillate also in isolation.

4. Functional Characterization of the Yeast Tumour Suppressor Homologue Sro7p
Abstract : Correct targeting of newly synthesized proteins to appropriate domains of the cell membrane is crucial to cellular architecture, polarity and function, making it no surprise that many proteins of the secretory machinery are conserved throughout evolution. This work presents a functional characterisation of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell polarity protein and tumour suppressor homologue, Sro7p. READ MORE

5. Engineered Yeast as Biocatalyst for Stereoselective reductions of Dicarbonyl Compounds
Abstract : Chiral building blocks are needed in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries for the production of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals. The utilisation of microorganisms and enzymes to perform stereoselective reductions of carbonyl compounds is an efficient and widely applied method for the generation of chiral molecules. READ MORE
