Sea Cucumber news!!

[Ophiura]

Hi,

For those of you who attended my talk in December (shameless reminder ) you may remember the image of the sea cucumber running through the fingers of a researcher. I talked about the "mutable collagenous tissue" that is unique to echinoderms in general. It is one of the interesting features that is studied for technological applications.

Thought you might enjoy:
