This study creates a 3D molecular brain atlas of the hagfish, revealing ancestral and derived features of vertebrate brain organization.

This study identifies and characterizes olfactory receptor repertoires in hagfish, revealing that V2Rs originated in the vertebrate common ancestor and diversified in hagfish for adaptation to deep-sea environments.

The paper uses AChE staining and gene expression analysis to show that the lamprey's ramus subpharyngeus contains motor fibers, suggesting a reorganization in the anterior craniofacial region during jaw evolution.

This study investigates the functional development of eye movements and visuomotor circuits in lampreys, revealing that stabilizing reflexes develop earlier than goal-oriented responses.
