A new map of arthropod evolution, from #fossils to #embryos
New study sheds light on how #insects, #spiders, #crustaceans, and other #arthropods evolved their distinct body structures. By tracing these patterns back to ancient embryonic processes, the research uncovers a deep evolutionary logic behind the segmented #bodyPlans that define the world’s most diverse animal group.

EurekAlert!A new map of arthropod evolution, from fossils to embryosNew study sheds light on how insects, spiders, crustaceans, and other arthropods evolved their distinct body structures. By tracing these patterns back to ancient embryonic processes, the research uncovers a deep evolutionary logic behind the segmented body plans that define the world’s most diverse animal group. The findings challenge long-held assumptions and offer a bold new framework for understanding how developmental mechanisms shaped the evolution of arthropods over hundreds of millions of years.

Since then, ≥4 of #Alabama’s 7 #fertility clinics have hired #biotech cos to move the cells elsewhere. A 5th clinic is working w/a doctor in NY to discard #embryos bc of concerns about the legality of doing so in AL.
Fertility patients outside of AL, too, are worried about how their embryos…might one day be affected by lawmakers who believe human life begins at conception. Since #SCOTUS’ 2022 decision to overturn #RoeVWade, 14 states have passed total or near total #abortion bans.
A court ruling that deemed #FrozenEmbryos “children” has motivated some patients & clinics to move embryos out of #RedStates.
The embryo migration is most striking in #Alabama, where the State Supreme Court ruled in Feb that #embryos were “unborn children.”

“The #shooting happened on a Sat morning. 2 days later, we were supposed to have an appointment at Bethesda Naval Hospital in Washington, where Gabby had been receiving #fertility treatments, to have our #embryos implanted to try to begin a #pregnancy. Like a lot of folks, we got married a little later in our lives. …We wanted to grow our family together & were fortunate enough to be able to pursue the only option for us: in vitro fertilization, or #IVF. Gabby never made it to that appointment.

#Alabama has a near-total #AbortionBan, & #IVF services were paused last month because of a court ruling equating #FrozenEmbryos to children.
#MarilynLands defeated #Republican Teddy Powell to win the open legislative seat, acc/to unofficial returns Tues. Powell, a member of the Madison City Council, issued a statement conceding the race & congratulating Lands on her victory.
#MarilynLands, a Dem who made #ReproductiveRights a centerpiece of her campaign in deeply #conservative #Alabama, won a special election to the Alabama Legislature.
Lands’ victory in the suburban district in the #DeepSouth state was celebrated by #Democrats who have attempted to portray the state #GOP as too extreme on #abortion & reproductive rights.

In his SOTU, President Joe Biden called out attacks on abortion and IVF. In the video linked below, Robert P. Jones notes that only 9% of Americans support a total ban on abortion. 64% say abortion should be legal in most or all cases. This is why Republicans want to hedge on what they have held up to now about IVF — which is a direct consequence of their insistence that a human person is present from the moment of conception.

…The University of #Alabama at #Birmingham, which stopped treatments after the ruling, said…that it was“moving to promptly resume” treatments.
The #law also shields “manufacturers of goods used to facilitate” #IVF or the transport of #embryos from #criminal charges, but stops short of providing blanket #immunity for those companies.
While the law provides #legal immunity for clinics providing IVF, it doesn’t stipulate whether #FrozenEmbryos are people, as the AL Supreme Court did.
