Scholar-generated biography
Hunter Fraser is a Professor of Biology at Stanford University, specializing in evolution, genomics, gene expression, and genetics. His research explores evolutionary mechanisms, such as the relationship between protein evolution rates and protein-protein interactions, and the role of gene expression in adaptation. He investigates how genetic variation influences traits like DNA methylation, tissue-specific genomic imprinting, and immune responses. His work also includes functional genomic analyses of protein evolution rates and the coevolution of gene expression among interacting proteins. Fraser's research integrates computational and experimental approaches to uncover the genetic basis of phenotypic diversity and adaptation.
