- Title
Trawling aquatic life for new models in biomedical research and evolutionary developmental biology.
- Authors
Schneider, Patricia N.; Seemann, Frauke; Harris, Matthew P.; Braasch, Ingo
- Abstract
The article discusses the use of aquatic organisms as models for biomedical research and evolutionary developmental biology. It highlights the historical contributions of John Bland Sutton and Krogh in using animal biology to draw conclusions about human diseases. The article emphasizes the advantages of studying aquatic life, such as their ease of breeding and genetic manipulation, transparency for imaging, and regenerative abilities. It also provides examples of specific aquatic organisms that have been studied and their contributions to understanding reproductive biology, neuronal development, regeneration, and cancer. The article concludes by emphasizing the importance of collaboration, standardization, and resource preservation in research organism communities.
