Lekshmi Bhuvanendran Pillai Sreelatha

After my graduation from Ludwig Maximillian University of Munich, I am now working as a molecular laboratory/ genetic analyses technician in CIBIO. My main research interests comprise of evolutionary ecology, animal coloration and behavior. As a part of my master thesis, I had a chance to work on the alternative strategies developed by the color morphs of Podarcis muralis lizards, in association with their locomotory behavior. Currently, I am involved in a project focused on the role of past climatic changes in framing the genomic architecture of adaptations to extreme desert conditions by Sahara- Sahel rodent communities.
