The EBV has been linked to multiple human disease phenotypes and has been associated with cancers and other infections. Recently single gene analysis and genome-wide analysis studies have been exploited ...
Carnero-Montoro, Elena (Fecha de defensa: 2013-10-25)
The genetic basis of phenotypes that have contributed to the adaptation of species and organisms to new environments is a central question in evolutionary genetics. The recent accumulation of genetic ...

La seqüenciació del genoma humà ha marcat una fita important en la història de la biologia. Com a conseqüència, la genètica i la genòmica han experimentat un progrés enorme. Això ha permès un millor ...
Salaverria Izaguirre, Pablo G. (Fecha de defensa: 2019-11-22)
This PhD thesis aimed to understand the impact of temperature at different levels (biology to physics) while performing live-cell imaging. A study and characterization of the role of the temperature ...
