Project Description

This is a collaboration with the Institute fro Hydrobiology, Biology Centre of the Czech Academy of Sciences. The project has been funded through the Czech Science Foundation and we have been named as collaborators to train Czech PDRA's and carry out some of the bioinformatics analysis. The project will extend over three years and a budget has been allocated to cover Hull PDRA time for a few weeks every year.
