Guest lecturer Abstract The question of how heritable mutations arise is one of long-standing interest in biology. In the case of bacteria, there was a debate about whether mutations arise as a consequence of adaptation to selective pressure from the environment, or … 26 May 2025 17:00 - 18:00 Series Photochemical activation Louis Fensterbank, chair Activations in Molecular Chemistry Seminar 05 Mar 2025 → 09 Apr 2025 Series Photochemical activation Louis Fensterbank, chair Activations in Molecular Chemistry Lecture Photochemistry is a branch of chemistry that studies light-induced chemical reactions.
