Hinman Lab
Led by Veronica Hinman · Biology
What we study
The lab studies how genomes control cell fate decisions in development and how that evolves. It uses sea urchins, sea stars and sea cucumbers, and studies how sea stars regenerate their nervous systems. The lab is at UF's Whitney Laboratory for Marine Bioscience in St. Augustine, Florida.
