Abstract
Keaton Schuster completed his PhD in the lab of Rachel Smith-Bolton at the University of Illinois, USA, investigating Drosophila wing disc regeneration before joining Lionel Christiaen's lab at New York University, USA, for his postdoc studying heart regeneration in the chordate tunicate Ciona robusta (formerly Ciona intestinalis type A). Keaton is part of the second cohort of Development's Pathway to Independence Programme fellows and we spoke to him over Teams to learn more about his career to date and his future plans for starting his own group continuing to use emerging model systems to study cardiac regeneration.
