Michael Layden, associate professor of biological sciences, leads a team of researchers studying the neural development of the Starlet Sea Anemone.
The College of Arts and Sciences launches a new research center that focuses on the field of ocean science.
New research finds the same genetic mechanisms at work during neural development in both humans and Nematostella vectensis.
Michael Layden turns to the starlet sea anemone to better understand neural development and how the human brain evolved, and potentially improve treatments of central nervous system disorders.
