A Worm Fondness for Regeneration: A Story in Several Segments
B. Duygu Özpolat, Hibbitt Fellow, MBL
Segmented worms (or Annelids) have amazing abilities to regrow their lost body parts; a phenomenon called regeneration. When cut into small pieces, many worms can regrow new heads (including a new brain!) and new tails from the small pieces, eventually each piece becoming a new individual. As humans, we have so much to learn about regeneration from these organisms. What kind of cells, genes, processes are involved? How can we visualize regeneration as it is happening? Dr. Özpolat will provide an overview of the wondrous things these creepy crawlies can do, and discuss how her lab is studying them to understand the mechanisms of regeneration.
All are welcome!

This course will be taught by Tom Gotsill of West Harwich, a retired teacher of American literature, philosophy, and humanities. He is also an active playwright and columnist for The Cape Cod Times. In this course we will explore some essential ideas in philosophy and ethics, ideas that might help us answer the big questions, such as “What is a good life?” and “How should I live?” We will view two classic American films that illustrate the ideas we explore, Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989) and High Noon (1952).
