 Advances in Microscopy Propel Scientists' Understanding of Cell Division
MBL is a Gathering Place for the World's Best and Brightest in Microscopy and Neuroimaging
Over the last 50 years, rapid advances in imaging technology have propelled scientific discovery relating to cell division, specifically the process of mitosis. Mitosis describes the series of steps whereby a cell divides its chromosomes and cytoplasm, producing two genetically identical daughter cells. MBL summer investigators Conly Rieder and Alexey Khodjakov reviewed these advances in microscopy and mitosis research in the April 4 issue of the journal Science... more »
Cod Reproduction Focus of MBL Study
Scientists at the Marine Biological Laboratory recently launched a project aimed at learning more about the reproductive biology of Atlantic cod. They ultimately hope to develop techniques to store unfertilized cod eggs, and to provide cod broodstock (fish held for reproduction) and eggs that are free of nodavirus, a pathogen causing significant mortality in farm-raised cod in North America.
