This project studies the regeneration mechanisms of neuromasts in fish and amphibians, aiming to understand organ development and repair. The research will create in vitro models to investigate cellular organization and regeneration processes.
Neuromasts are the sensory organs used by fishes and amphibians to sense water displacement.
Neuromasts contain hair cells that are very similar to our own inner ear cells.
Unlike mammalian ear cells, bird and fish hair cells regenerate after ablated.
Understanding the mechanisms responsible for the development and regeneration of the sensory organs holds the promise of treating deafness in humans.
The study of neuromasts is also of advantage for basic science.
With its three cell types, and 70…
