Imagine a world where the boundaries between “fish” and “not-fish” blur, where the ancestors of birds and mammals once swam ...

Complex neural circuits likely arose independently in birds and mammals, suggesting that vertebrates evolved intelligence ...

All vertebrate embryos follow a common developmental path due to their common ancestry. All have a set of very similar genes (the homeobox genes) that define their basic body plan. As they grow ...

Technological advances, improved computational methods and the ever-decreasing cost of sequencing enabled the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP), which was launched in 2017, to pursue the ambitious ...

For the first time, footprints of armored dinosaurs with tail clubs have been identified, following discoveries made in the ...

To answer these questions, we investigate new emerging vertebrate models such as squamate reptiles (lizards and snakes), which display an exceptional array of regenerative capacities, life-styles, ...

A comparative study of vertebrate embryological development focusing on the morphological development (e.g., Differentiation of tissues, organs, and systems) of vertebrates. Evolutionary relationships ...

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 ...
