Kasper Munch
Population genomic analysis and modelling to understand the fundamental properties and mechanisms of selection, recombination, and speciation.

People
Group members past and present
Shannon D'Urso
Shannon works on how intra-genomic conflicts in spermatogenesis shape the genetic basis of autism.
Johan Christensen Ulstrup
As master student, Johan uses genomic pre-trained networks to compare sequence X chromosome sequence conservation across baboon species.
Former members
Søren Jørgensen
As master student, Søren works on chromatin architecture spermatogenesis and its relation to selection on the X chromosome.
Erik Fogh Sørensen
As PhD student, Erik works on how intragenomic conflicts shape X chromosome evolution and the development of hybrid incompatibilities between diverging populations.
Ariadna Saez Gomez
As intern, Ariadna worked on identifying genomic elements responsible for strong selection on the X chromosome.
Davide Capozzi
As intern, Davide worked on the dynamics of meiotic drive and on identifying signature patterns in genetic diversity for its identification.
Tobias Røikjer
As master student, Tobias worked on a graph-based formulation of phase-type distributions to compute the joint distribution of total branch length of lineages with different numbers of descendants and to compute the joint distribution of the site frequency spectrum in both a single population and in an isolation-with-migration model.
David Castellano
As postdoc, David was funded by Independent Research Fund Denmark. He worked on distributions of fitness effects and the determinants of genetic variation across the genomes of great apes.
Jonas Berglund
As postdoc, Jonas worked on GC-biased gene conversion and stability of hotspots in birds.
