Story (500 Words Max)
Dr. Adolfo Lara, Houston Health Department Laboratory, will present "Single cells to ancient networks: a case study in cnidarians".
Dr. Lara received his PhD from the Richard Gilder Graduate School at the American Museum of Natural History where his work focused on using genomic techniques to study cnidarian (anemones, jellyfish, and relatives) neural networks. Study of these organisms could provide information about early neural network organization in the cnidarian-bilaterian common ancestor. Information for ancient neural networks serves as a foundation to pinpoint neural evolutionary changes over time.
