Our short report on a remarkable feature of #ctenophores out now: Reverse development in the ctenophore Mnemiopsis. We show that Mnemiopsis is capable of reversal from mature lobate to early cydippid🤩. @MSarsCentre @UiB @biorxivpreprint #rejuvenation

A few months ago, @Alex_Aquatilis photographed a Beroe showing a very unusual trait: two mouths. @NickBezioArt, Alex and I joined forces and published a short note about it. Weird regeneration or developmental issue? Check it out! doi.org/10.1007/s12526-024-0… #Ctenophores

Want to know more about beautiful comb jellies and how the very first nervous system evolved?
Join us 25. January when @Ruth_Styfhals & @Alexandre4_Jan from our lab will discuss live at the Statsraaden Bar in Bergen @ 7 pm.

It might rain or it might snow,
but jellies won't get sampled on their own.
Today we are joining ctenosampling by @Alexandre4_Jan from @MSarsCentre, and taking the chance to get some jelly parasites for @Artsdatabanken project ParaZoo. @UiB @UiB_museet @NHMuseum_Bergen
