Scholar-generated biography
Charles Robin is a researcher at The University of Melbourne specializing in genetics, with a focus on evolutionary genomics and molecular mechanisms of adaptation. His work explores the genetic basis of insecticide resistance, gene duplication, and the functional evolution of detoxification genes in species such as Drosophila and Helicoverpa. Robin's research also investigates genomic innovations and transcriptional plasticity in invasive species, as well as the role of copy number variation and transposable elements in adaptation. His studies contribute to understanding the molecular evolution of cytochrome P450 genes, glutathione S-transferases, and other enzymes involved in detoxification processes. Robin's work has implications for pest management and evolutionary biology.
