Four broad research areas capture the core expertise of the members of OEB. Groundbreaking research in the life sciences is now more interdisciplinary than ever and many OEB faculty work in more than one of these areas. OEB also maintains expertise in a...

Carrie Albertin

Faculty Support: Meri Petollari

The Albertin lab investigates the evolutionary and developmental bases of biological novelty using soft-bodied cephalopods (squid and octopus) as model systems. To enable this work, Carrie and her group have built new tools...

Person

Faculty Support: Tracy Barbaro

Germ cells play a unique role in gamete production, heredity and evolution. Germ cells are likely also the closest wild type in vivo equivalent to laboratory-maintained stem cells. To understand the mechanisms that specify...
