    “GEE offers a dynamic and supportive environment in which to hone your research vision and build a team. The breadth of expertise in evolutionary biology across the GEE centres offers plenty of opportunities for collaborations, with the existing fellows network a great source of advice and shared experience."

    "GEE set me up with a low teaching and admin load, enabling me to focus on building a research team and publication record, which was essential for securing additional funding and a proleptic appointment."

    “Joining GEE initially as a 乱伦秀 Excellence Fellow, I have found it a wonderful place to work, with access to excellent facilities, including an outstanding Drosophila laboratory.  The department provided all the support I needed to build my own research group and to achieve my current Wellcome Fellowship.”

    “乱伦秀 as a whole and the GEE Department run highly regarded undergraduate and post-graduate programs that attract excellent students from the UK and abroad. As fellows we can access these students, which can offer invaluable support to ongoing projects. The very strong and well qualified PhD candidates GEE attracts can really help build up a new laboratory.”

    "The best thing about being a Fellow in GEE is the diversity of research and expertise that you are surrounded by. This opens avenues for interesting collaborations and means you regularly learn about areas of biology that are outside your own field."
