Society for Experimental Biology 2013 Annual MeetingSeeing starfish: The missing link in eye evolution? A study has shown for the first time that starfish use primitive eyes at the tip of their arms to visually navigate their environment. Research headed by Dr. Anders Garm at the Marine Biological Section of the University of Copenhagen in Denmark, showed that starfish eyes are image-forming and could be an essential stage in eye evolution.

Society for Experimental Biology 2013 Annual MeetingJumping snails leap over global warming Snails in the Great Barrier Reef literally jump for their life to avoid predators. But will they be able to maintain these life-saving jumps, with rising sea temperatures? A new study, to be presented at the Society for Experimental Biology meeting in Valencia on July 5, shows that the snails will indeed be able to keep on jumping, even at temperatures which will kill fish.

PLOS ONEGenetic factors shaping salamander tails determine regeneration pace Researchers have found that salamanders' capacity to regrow a cut tail depends on several small regions of DNA in their genome that impact how wide the tail grows. The results are published July 3 in the open-access journal PLOS ONE by Randal Voss and colleagues from the University of Kentucky.
