Martin Rücklin

Ik ben een paleobioloog die geïnteresseerd is in de evolutie en ontwikkeling van het leven. Hypothesen uit biologische wetenschappen stellen voor dat de evolutie van het leven wordt gedreven richting toenemende complexiteit door belangrijke innovaties. Als een model hiervoor bestudeer ik de oorsprong en evolutie van kaken en tanden en het dermale skelet. Met behulp van van voornamelijk non-invasieve röntgenmicroscopie reconstrueer ik de histologie van weefseltypen en groei van structuren.

De evolutie van kaken en tanden.

 

In tegenstelling tot traditionele hypothesen heb ik aangetoond dat de eerste tanden evolueerden in placodermen, de zustergroep van alle levende vertebraten met kaken. In mijn huidige onderzoek naar de evolutie van kaken en tanden, gesteund door een Vidi-financiering van NWO, test ik mijn hypothesen aangaande de evolutie van tandvervanging in vertebraten met kaken, vooral in Osteichthyes. In mijn team onderzoeken we de evolutie van complexiteit met behulp van tandcomplexiteit als een model, we onderzoeken de evolutie van modulariteit van kaken van vertebraten en de evolutie van tandgenregulatie met behulp van computationele modellen.
