Research Interests: Warner investigates gene regulatory networks, Hedgehog signaling, and mechanisms of embryonic development and regeneration in marine organisms. His studies include:

• Embryonic asymmetry and gastrulation in sea urchins
• Regeneration strategies in sea anemones
• Climate change mitigation through coral genetic engineering

Publications & Presentations: He has published extensively on marine invertebrate development, with notable contributions to:

• 3D virtual embryogenesis models
• Comparative transcriptomics across species
• Signaling pathways in developmental biology

Conference Participation: Warner has presented at key events like the Society for Developmental Biology Annual Meeting and the Temperate Coral Research Conference, addressing topics from genetic engineering ethics to computational biology tools.
