Grant Activity:
How limbs evolved from fins: the role of somite cells
Purpose:
This project aims to investigate the developmental basis of vertebrate appendage diversity and how during evolution limbs became fins. The project expects to determine how specific populations of cells that regulate fin formation arise during development, the genetic basis of their function, and how their role in development has evolved in lineages with divergent appendage anatomy. Expected outcomes include understanding the molecular basis of the fin-limb transition and the origin of divergent appendage patterning systems. This should provide significant benefits by advancing our knowledge of the relationship between evolution and development, and understanding limb defects, which are amongst the most common of human congenital malformations.
