@ct_bergstrom The wonderful #CoverImage @ScienceMagazine -
"ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi (in the cydippid stage) with part of its internal nerve net shown in yellow and orange. Three-dimensional analysis reveals that neurons of the internal nerve net form a continuous membrane network rather than connecting through synaptic junctions... llustration: C.Bickel" https://www.science.org/cms/asset/d89d03c4-64aa-4b02-b93e-b1c21eba17de/science.2023.380.issue-6642.largecover.jpg

Thrilled to see ctenophores on the cover of
@ScienceMagazine🤩. Our latest work on the Syncytial Nerve Net in a ctenophore out now. Link: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.ade5645
Work supported by @MSarsCentre, @UiB, @ERC_Research. #ctenophores #evolution #syncytium.
