The
research projects of the Division Animal Genetics focus on the molecular
mechanisms underlying organogenesis in animal development. Using Drosophila
melanogaster as
a model system (i) the cell biology of gastrulation, (ii) the molecular biology of hematopoiesis, (iii) the
molecular basis of cell migration, (iv) the
developmental genetics of gut formation and (v) the molecular mechanisms of cuticle differentiation are investigated. Another
project tries to integrate aspects of these topics and
is concerned with (vi) the evolution of developmental mechanisms that are relevant for organogenesis. |
