Delighted to see this work from my lab published today, where we identify a population of ETV-1 positive glutamatergic neurons that are activated in the brain in response to a distant injury. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Ever seen an anemone hunt for lunch? 👀 The starlet sea anemone has specialized ‘stinging cells’ that hurl toxins into prey! 🦐 MBL Associate Scientist @karenecheverri.bsky.social uses the starlet sea anemone to study the evolution of regenerative ability. 📲 More: bit.ly/3XIwYse
