Our research focuses on intragenomic conflicts and their impact on genome evolution using Drosophila.
A huge thanks to my amazing mentors, Catherine Montchamp-Moreau and @amlarracuente.bsky.social. I would not be here without their support over the years.
Pierre Capy était un généticien, un drosophiliste, un acteur majeur dans l'essor de la génétique des éléments transposables en France.
Très impliqué dans l'administration de la vie scientifique, il a aussi été directeur du laboratoire LEGS (actuel @EGCE), et un des fondateurs en 2016 de @IDEEV.
Grateful to have worked with such an incredible team on this project. Excited to finally share this story about Top2 evolution and hybrid incompatibility in Drosophila. More to come!
Another announcement! 📣 Our work on hybrid incompatibility in cohesin protection in 🐭oocytes is published!! Congrats Warif El Yakoubi and Eddie Pan!!🎉 We found hybrids with cohesion errors in two distinct genus.
