February 1, 2024 - Nipam H. Patel, Ph.D., Director of the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) and a Professor at the University of Chicago, presents an NHGRI DIR Seminar, titled "Insights from Emerging Research Organisms: From Germline Regeneration to the Physics of Beauty."
Dr. Patel is a leading scholar in modern evolutionary and developmental biology with specific focus on the evolution of body patterning and segmentation, regeneration of the germline, and structural coloration. His scientific expertise encompasses the development of novel, genetic model organisms for biological study, which can reveal much about human biology; and the application of advanced imaging technologies to probe the fundamental dynamics of living systems. In addition, Dr. Patel is an elected fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and is the author of more than 130 scientific publications.
