Evolution and development of Brain Networks: From Caenorhabditis elegans to Homo sapiens
, 2011 Neural networks show a progressive increase in complexity during the time course of evolution. From diffuse nerve nets in Cnidaria to modular, hierarchical systems in macaque and humans, there is a gradual shift from simple processes involving a limited ...

What goes in, must come out:combining scat-based molecular diet analysis and quantification of ingested microplastics in a marine top predator [PDF]
, 2019 Context: Microplastics (plastic particles <5 mm in size) are highly available for ingestion by a wide range of organisms, either through direct consumption or indirectly, via trophic transfer, from prey to predator.

Recombinant Proteins: A Molecular Tool to Understand Marine Adhesion and to Advance Biomaterials
Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 3, 19 January 2026.The production of recombinant proteins represents a fundamental step in the characterisation of marine invertebrate adhesives and in the development of bio‐inspired glues. The association of these proteins with other components such as ions, proteins, polysaccharides, or polymers enables the fabrication of biomaterials for various healthcare ...

The Evolution of Senses: My Research Journey into the Nervous System of Cnidaria [PDF]
, 2017 Our understanding of the evolutionary history of animals is improving, but knowledge of the ancient sensory systems that early animals used to interact with their environments is still largely unknown.

Novel diversity in mitochondrial genomes of deep-sea Pennatulacea (Cnidaria: Anthozoa: Octocorallia)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part A, DNA mapping, sequencing, and analysis, 2019 We present the first documented complete mitogenomes of deep-sea Pennatulacea, representing nine genera and eight families. These include one species each of the deep-sea genera Funiculina, Halipteris, Protoptilum and Distichoptilum, four species each of

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding with 18S rRNA markers to assess microbial diversity in the Lantebung Mangrove Forest, Makassar, Indonesia. It identified 103 microbial species across five kingdoms, revealing higher species richness in open‐water areas (P1) and greater individual abundance under mangrove canopy (P2).

Coral Disease and Health Workshop: Coral Histopathology II [PDF]
, 2007 The health and continued existence of coral reef ecosystems are threatened by an increasing array of environmental and anthropogenic impacts. Coral disease is one of the prominent causes of increased mortality among reefs globally, particularly in the ...

β-Catenin–dependent mechanotransduction dates back to the common ancestor of Cnidaria and Bilateria
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018 Significance Besides genetic regulation, mechanical forces have been identified as important cues in numerous developmental processes. Mechanical forces can activate biochemical cascades in a process called mechanotransduction.

Evaluating Prey Availability for the Rice's Whale (Balaenoptera ricei) Based on Environmental DNA
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.To characterize the prey community of the critically endangered Rice's whale, we employed environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding in its core habitat. Our multi‐marker approach detected significantly greater fish biodiversity than concurrent trawl surveys and revealed a higher prevalence of key prey taxa.
