MBL Friday Evening Lecture Series: “The Molecular Anatomy of Animal Body Plans” – Chris Lowe, Hopkins Marine Station, Standford University

Our understanding of major events in animal evolution have largely been based on comparative anatomy of both living and fossil taxa. The large morphological disparity between living taxa, and an often-imperfect fossil record, have made reconstructing early events in origins of animal phyla challenging. A growing body of work from developmental biology reveals that bilateral ...

MBL Friday Evening Lecture Series: “Blindspots to Inclusion in Environmental and Ocean Sciences” – Karlisa Callwood
