This research investigates the evolution of head skeletons in vertebrates by studying basal fish lineages. It employs advanced genetic techniques to understand the development of structures critical for feeding and processing prey.
Vertebrates, which include our own species, are the most diverse and successful group of Deuterostomes.
Success of this group has been explained by the evolution of elaborated head skeleton adapted to capturing and processing large prey.
Most of this skeleton derives from neural crest cells migrating into the pharynx during and after the formation of pharyngeal pouches.
To better understand how development of these structures evolved, the research project will study representatives of three basa…
