Does regeneration recapitulate phylogeny? Planaria as a model of body-axis specification in ancestral eumetazoa [PDF]
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2020 Metazoan body plans combine well-defined primary, secondary, and in many bilaterians, tertiary body axes with structural asymmetries at multiple scales.

Sensitivity of Planaria to Weak, Patterned Electric Current and the Subsequent Correlative Interactions with Fluctuations in the Intensity of the Magnetic Field of Earth [PDF]
J, 2020 Some species of fish show highly evolved mechanisms by which they can detect exogenous electric and magnetic fields. The detection of electromagnetic fields has been hypothesized to exist in humans, despite the lack of specialized sensors.

The non-nutritive sweeteners acesulfame potassium and neotame slow the regeneration rate of planaria [PDF]
Journal of emerging investigators, 2023 The consumption of sugar substitute non-nutritive sweeteners (NNS) has dramatically increased in recent years. Despite being advertised as a healthy alternative, NNS have been linked to adverse effects on the body, such as neurodegenerative diseases (NDs)
