معرفی
David Mörsdorf is a researcher in the Faculty of Life Sciences, affiliated with the Department of Neuroscience and Developmental Biology. His work focuses on evolutionary developmental biology, particularly mechanisms of axial patterning in marine organisms.
- Fields of Interest: Bilateria, Catenin, Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP), Cnidaria, Cubozoa, Dorsal-Ventral Patterning, Xenopus, Anura.
Recent Research Highlights: Mörsdorf's publications (2025) explore BMP signaling in sea anemones (Cubozoa), chordin-mediated axis patterning in Nematostella vectensis, and evolutionary novelties in Bilateria via β-catenin pathways. These studies bridge molecular biology, genetics, and comparative developmental biology.
- Key Collaborations: Grigory Genikhovich, Peter Knabl, Martina Prünster.
- Projects: 'Extracellular regulation of Chordin in a cnidarian' (2025–2028); 'Search for an ancestral mechanism of BMP-mediated patterning' (2021–2023).
