Person
Her research has provided profound mechanistic insights allowing her to address evolutionary and developmental questions, such as the origin of teeth in jawed vertebrates, the origin of in situ tooth replacement in bony fish, and the relationship between teeth and dermal odontodes. Based on synchrotron microtomography, she is using three-dimensional virtual histology to reconstruct the ontogenetic histories of early vertebrate dermoskeletons. This three-dimensional 'reverse engineering' of ontogeny allows cell behaviors, such as the spatial regulation of odontoclast and osteoclast activity within the resorption zones, to be inferred in fossils and compared with those of living animals. It opens the door to integrating different strands of cutting-edge research, from developmental genomics to paleohistology, in order to explore current topics about the evolution, development and patterning of teeth.

System requirements
File format: PDF
Copy-Protection: Adobe-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
System requirements:
- Computer (Windows; MacOS X; Linux): Install the free reader Adobe Digital Editions prior to download (see eBook Help).
- Tablet/smartphone (Android; iOS): Install the free app Adobe Digital Editions or the app PocketBook before downloading (see eBook Help).
- E-reader: Bookeen, Kobo, Pocketbook, Sony, Tolino and many more (only limited: Kindle).
The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
Please note: We strongly recommend that you authorise using your personal Adobe ID after installation of any reading software.
