معرفی
Ludwik Gąsiorowski is a researcher at the University of Warsaw's Department of Comparative Invertebrate Zoology. His work focuses on evolutionary biology, invertebrate morphology, and developmental genetics. He leads projects such as 'Evolutionary perspective on irradiation resistance of stem cells' (SONATA NCN grant) and 'Elucidating ecological and developmental causes of asexual reproduction and colony formation in flatworms' (Polish Returns NAWA grant).
His research interests include the evolution of animal body plans, Evo-Devo studies, and biodiversity of microscopic invertebrates. Notable projects explore flatworm regeneration mechanisms, Hox gene evolution in Spiralia, and the phylogenetic relationships of lophophorate groups like phoronids.
Key publications span topics such as sensory organ evolution in flatworms, molecular analyses of nemertean brains, and comparative studies of excretory organs. His work combines experimental and morphological approaches to address fundamental questions in evolutionary biology.
