Filip Kolař receives ERC Junior Grant

Filip Kolař, former member of the research group “Evolutionary Systematics”, has been awarded a prestigious European Research Council grant.
The ERC Junior Grant provides 5 years of funding for his research on the evolutionary significance of genome duplication at Charles University in Prague, which will help improve our understanding of evolutionary mechanisms, and may also be useful for plant breeding.

We congratulate Filip on this major success, and are happy to have an ongoing research collaboration with Filip’s research group!
