Stem cells and the Planarian Schmidtea mediterranea [PDF]
In recent years, stem cells have been heralded as potential therapeutic agents to address a large number of degenerative diseases. Yet, in order to rationally utilize these cells as effective therapeutic agents, and/or improve treatment of stem-cell-associated malignancies such as leukemias and carcinomas, a better understanding of

Chemical Exposure-Induced Developmental Neurotoxicity in Head-Regenerating Schmidtea mediterranea. [PDF]
Abstract The growing number of commercially used chemicals that are under-evaluated for developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) combined with the difficulty in describing the etiology of exposure-related neurodevelopmental toxicity has created a reticent threat to human health.

Widespread maintenance of genome heterozygosity in Schmidtea mediterranea. [PDF]
Loss of heterozygosity through inbreeding or mitotic errors leads to reductions in progeny survival and fertility. Loss of heterozygosity is particularly exacerbated in geographically isolated populations, which are prone to inbreeding depression and faster rates of extinction.
