Sea urchins are fascinating organisms that serve as valuable models for studying embryonic development ... important advancement in sea urchin research is the development of genetic tools to ...

each starting embryonic development. In contrast to cells with the normal set of chromosomes, these cells generated various malformations in the sea-urchin larvae. To interpret these findings and ...

In 1874 the German zoologist Oscar Hertwig studied fertilization of sea urchin eggs ... of the sperm is to trigger development of the egg into an embryo. This moment of science comes from ...

We are interested in the role of the extracellular matrix in embryonic development. We have found that treatment of sea urchin embryos with chlorate, a competitive inhibitor of sulfation of ...

Thanks to stem cell research, today we understand the earliest stages of human development quite well and can therefore differentiate stem ... In 1885, Hans Driesch showed that both cells of a ...

Students will be exposed to a wide variety of embryonic systems, including intensively studied genetic model systems (e.g.C. elegans, zebrafish, mouse) and others with well-established experimental ...
