Frogs are valuable and cost-effective tools for demonstrating fetal stress hormone effects on adult chronic diseases, new research suggests. UC biologists have turned to amphibian sources -- ...

Frogs’ anatomy and organ function are strikingly similar to those of humans. An international team led by Soeren Lienkamp, professor at the Institute of Anatomy at UZH, has now exploited this ...

UC biologists have turned to amphibian sources -- specifically frogs and tadpoles -- to help shed light on how early stressors in the womb and shortly after birth may play a part in the onset of adult ...
