Bio
During animal development, cells of the growing embryo become organized into structures of greatly different sizes, shapes, and functions. Genetic and embryological studies of a model animal, the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, have shown that the specification of the overall body plan, the formation of complex arrays of tissues and organs, and the assignment of individual cell types occurs in a highly ordered temporal sequence and spatial pattern. The search for genes that are necessary for the proper organization of the Drosophila embryo and the formation of adult structures has identified a modest number of loci which affect specific aspects of development. Research in the Carroll laboratory is currently focused on the developmental regulatory mechanisms that control the formation and patterning of complex structures. This body of work provides the conceptual and material foundation for studying long-standing problems in evolutionary biology such as the evolution of novelty and the genetic basis of body plan diversification.
