Hafen Lab: Master thesis/semester project on CRISPR/Cas9-mediated SNP changes to elucidate cause of size variations
How genetic variation (e.g. SNP) leads to different traits/phenotypes in natural populations is a fundamental and challenging problem in both the life and medical sciences. This project will involve several objectives to tackle this problem by first establishing an efficient in vivo CRISPR/Cas9 method and then using this method to change phenotype-associated SNPs in inbred Drosophila lines derived from a natural population.
