Researchers at the Marine Biological Laboratory (MBL) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, have successfully engineered a transparent squid using genetic engineering.
They are so strikingly see-through. It changes the way you interpret what’s going on in this animal, being able to see completely through the body
This innovation has significant implications for brain research, as scientists can now observe the squid's internal structures with ease.
The team's achievement is a notable example of how biologists are using genetic engineering to advance our understanding of complex biological systems.
