Partnership

We have every-day contacts with several other groups in Zurich

• Theoretical Biology (Prof. S. Bonhoeffer, ETHZ)
• Plant Ecological Genetics (Prof. A. Widmer, ETHZ)
• Plant Pathology (Prof. B. McDonald, ETHZ)
• Aquatic Ecology (Prof. J. Jokela, EAWAG / ETHZ)
• Animal Ecology (Prof. H.-U. Reyer, UNIZH)
• Animal Behavior (Prof. B. König, UNIZH)
• Developmental Biology (Dr. D. Bopp, UNIZH)
• Zoological Museum (Prof. P. Ward, Prof. W. Blanckenhorn, UNIZH)

Partnership also extends to several labs in Europe and overseas

• Genomics, Bioinformatics of host-parasite interactions (Dr. Richard Reinhardt, Dr. Michael Kube, Max-Planck-Instiute for Molecular Genetics)
• NSF Research Collabrotive Network (Prof. Lynn Martin, Ecological Immunology)
  

• Genomics of social insects (Prof. Jürgen Gadau, School of Life Sciences & Center for Social Dynamics and Complexity, Arizona State University, Tempe
  
• Parasites in multi-host communities (Dr. Mark Brown, Royal Holloway University of London)
  
• Genetic studies in Tribolium castaneum (Dr. Mike Wade, Indiana University, USA)
• Comparative study of parasitism in two biodiversity hotspots of large pollinators (Jilian Li, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Xianghsan, Beijing)
