Polypterus

 

Our research combines emerging research organisms such as lungfish and bichirs, as well as more established research systems such as axolotl and zebrafish to identify shared cellular and molecular components of regeneration. We employ cutting-edge approaches such as spatial RNA sequencing and epigenetic profiling, combined with gene loss- and gain-of-function assays in highly regenerative species. We believe that by studying the multi-layered processes that triggers regeneration in a comparative framework, we will be closer to identifying a toolkit of regeneration and understand how and why regeneration evolves.
