Welcome to Episode 26 of Slightly Evolved! This week our guest is Dr Luisa Orsini, lecturer at the University of Birmingham, UK.
Luisa talks to us about her work on Daphnia, a fascinating system where you able to "resurrect" dormant individuals that are sometimes 100s of years old. We talk about how you can use the system to test for recent adaptation, and discuss the importance of taking a multi -omics approach for studying evolution.
