Abstract

Mansi Srivastava is Professor of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University, USA, where her group has developed the three-banded panther worm (Hofstenia miamia) as a model system in which to study whole-body regeneration. This year, Mansi is a Guest Editor for Development's special issue on lifelong development, which highlights how developmental processes and pathways are used throughout animal lifespans. We last interviewed Mansi in 2022, so we caught up with her over Zoom to discuss the importance of studying development across the lifetime of an organism, how this relates to her own research, and why Hofstenia is the perfect model for studying the extent to which regeneration involves the recapitulation of developmental processes.

对Mansi Srivastava的采访。

Mansi Srivastava是美国哈佛大学的有机体和进化生物学教授，她的团队已经开发出了三带黑豹蠕虫（Hofstenia miamia）作为研究全身再生的模型系统。今年，Mansi是《发展》杂志关于终身发展的特刊的客座编辑，该特刊强调了动物在整个生命周期中如何使用发育过程和途径。我们上次采访Mansi是在2022年，所以我们通过Zoom采访了她，讨论了在生物体的整个生命周期中研究发育的重要性，这与她自己的研究有什么关系，以及为什么Hofstenia是研究再生涉及发育过程重演程度的完美模型。

期刊介绍： Development’s scope covers all aspects of plant and animal development, including stem cell biology and regeneration. The single most important criterion for acceptance in Development is scientific excellence. Research papers (articles and reports) should therefore pose and test a significant hypothesis or address a significant question, and should provide novel perspectives that advance our understanding of development. We also encourage submission of papers that use computational methods or mathematical models to obtain significant new insights into developmental biology topics. Manuscripts that are descriptive in nature will be considered only when they lay important groundwork for a field and/or provide novel resources for understanding developmental processes of broad interest to the community. Development includes a Techniques and Resources section for the publication of new methods, datasets, and other types of resources. Papers describing new techniques should include a proof-of-principle demonstration that the technique is valuable to the developmental biology community; they need not include in-depth follow-up analysis. The technique must be described in sufficient detail to be easily replicated by other investigators. Development will also consider protocol-type papers of exceptional interest to the community. We welcome submission of Resource papers, for example those reporting new databases, systems-level datasets, or genetic resources of major value to the developmental biology community. For all papers, the data or resource described must be made available to the community with minimal restrictions upon publication. To aid navigability, Development has dedicated sections of the journal to stem cells & regeneration and to human development. The criteria for acceptance into these sections is identical to those outlined above. Authors and editors are encouraged to nominate appropriate manuscripts for inclusion in one of these sections.
