Provides training in a wide range of biochemical, genetic and cell biological approaches specifically tailored for research into chromosome and developmental biology; students have the opportunity to study how changes in the state of chromosomal proteins or RNAs specify changes in cell behaviour; how these changes arise and are propagated; how gametes are produced from germ cells; how the genome is propagated and maintained in the germline and in somatic cells; how chromosomes are recombined during meiosis; what factors determine whether chromosomes inherit the privilege of entering the germ line; patterns of cell division during embryogenesis; and finally whether different principles govern the duplication and segregation of prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes.
