Lab Update

There were some minor setbacks with setting up the aquaria and so our timeline was pushed back some.

But the aquariums are up and running and the octopus hatchlings have hatched!

The hatchlings will be arriving next week to make sure the tanks are properly cycled for them.

About This Project

Cephalopods and vertebrates have gone through similar circumstances that required adaptations such as learning and memory abilities. These skills are seen in some cephalopods which are able to solve mazes and navigate complex environments. The timing of this skill development in cephalopod evolution remains unknown. This project determines the spatial learning abilities of the O.bimaculoides by measuring recognition of habitats and pathway to the hidden food source.
