Martin Kreitman

Education

Kreitman graduated from Stony Brook University with a Bachelor of Science degree Biology in 1975, and from the University of Florida with a Master of Science degree in Zoology, in 1977. He went on to study at Harvard University, graduating with a Ph.D. in Population Genetics, specifically Nucleotide Sequence Variation of Alcohol dehydrogenase in Drosophila melanogaster[6] in 1983.[7]

Research

The Kreitman lab does research in four main areas:[8][9][10][11]

"Functional evolution of cis-regulatory sequences (Drosophila)"[12]

"Molecular population genetics and evolution (Drosophila and Arabidopsis)"[12]

"Canalization in development and evolution (Drosophila)"[12]

"Evolutionary dynamics of disease resistance and pathogenicity (Arabidopsis)"[12]
