ロバート・バイアード Robert Baird

Hi, I'm Robert Baird. I'm from the UK and completed my undergraduate degree Zoology at the University of Sheffield, followed by a Masters in Biology at LMU Munich in Germany. I then completed my PhD in Evolutionary Biology at the University of Edinburgh. I'm currently a postdoctoral scientist at the Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Science at MIT, where I combine cytology with evolution to understand species with unusual genetics and what this can tell us about more fundamental biological questions. I am a visiting researcher at iTHEMS, working with Thomas Hitchcock to try to develop ideas and predictions for how some of the unusual genetic systems that I study evolved.
