My name is Martin Andres Estermann and I am a PhD candidate in Craig Smith’s lab at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia. My research focuses in sex determination and gonadal development and differentiation in birds, using chicken, quail and emu as animal models. My work uses omics technologies, (bulk and Single Cell RNA sequencing) to identify new candidate genes involved in these processes. I am particularly interested in immunology, genetics, developmental biology, evo-devo, and specifically in sex determination gonadal development.
