The [Srivastava Lab](http://www.srivastavalab.org), led by postdoc [Andrew Gehrke](https://andrewgehrke.weebly.com), sequenced the genome of *Hofstenia* *miamia* in order to understand how the non-coding portion of the genome responds to whole-body regeneration. The study is published in [Science](http://science.sciencemag.org/content/363/6432/eaau6173) and highlighted by the [Harvard Gazette](https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2019/03/harvard-study-unlocks-a-key-to-regeneration/).
