University of Bristol researchers reveal key drivers behind diverse jaw shapes in lizards and snakes, focusing on ecological ...

However, for a complete understanding of evolutionary processes and other fundamental questions in biology ... cost of sequencing enabled the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP), which was launched ...

MS students need 2 years and often three years of support. PhD students need at least 3-5 years. Please note that I do not accept anyone for the PhD degree who has not already received a MS degree.

As an undergraduate at Emory University in Atlanta, I discovered my passion for both biological psychology and vertebrate biology (especially salamanders). I decided that my graduate work should ...

Evolutionary relationships of the classes of vertebrates will be investigated through their anatomy. This course builds on concepts taught in Developmental Biology, providing more detailed analysis of ...

In my lab, we are interested in understanding the developmental evolution of our own subphylum, the vertebrates. To do this, we study developmental gene expression, regulation, and function in three ...

The changes in metabolic activity associated with endothermy and the change from gill to lung respiration has led to changes in vertebrate circulatory systems. Veins between two capillary networks are ...

"We found that these two molecular pathways are the key to how segment borders and numbers are specified in vertebrates," said Özbudak, who is also professor of Cell and Developmental Biology.

Due to Dave’s insight, my general interest in sea turtles and biology expanded greatly as I realized that sea turtles were a prime example of vertebrate physiology, ecology, and evolution.
