Inger Greve Alsos


Job description

Alsos leder laboratoriet for urgammelt DNA ved Tromsø Museum. Hennes primære forskningsområde er arktisk botanikk med særlig fokus på hvordan planter reagerer på klimaendringer. Forskningsgruppen jobber med å rekonstruere hvordan økosystemer (planter og dyr) har utviklet seg fra siste istids maksimum og frem til i dag.
