Project title:<\/strong> Aestivation in <\/span>Biomphalaria<\/span> glabrata: Central Nervous System Mechanisms and Adaptations.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>

Project Description:<\/strong> My research focuses on understanding the central nervous system mechanisms underlying aestivation in <\/span>Biomphalaria<\/span> glabrata, a freshwater snail capable of entering a dormant state to withstand unfavorable environmental conditions. By investigating neural circuits and molecular pathways involved in this process, I aim to uncover how the nervous system regulates extended periods of inactivity and metabolic suppression.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
