Dr. Servetnick\u2019s research focuses on embryonic development and evolution. He is interested in how genes that are important in development have taken on new roles over evolutionary time, and how these changes have contributed to the emergence of different animals. His current research focuses on the T-box gene family in the development of the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
