Molecular Genetics & Evolution Laboratory
Overview:
The lab is based at the Department of Biotechnology of the Agricultural University of Athens, close to the city center.
Dr Koumandou combines molecular biology techniques with bioinformatics, to address questions in molecular genetics and evolution. Her PhD work focused on the chloroplast genome of dinoflagellate algae. She has also worked on the evolution of trafficking pathways in eukaryotes (as a Post-doctoral Research Associate at the University of Cambridge), and the evolution of different bioenergetics pathways in prokaryotes (on a Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship).
She maintains active projects in both areas, in collaboration with labs both in Greece and abroad (UK, USA, Canada).
