Image: An adult <I>Euprymna scolopes,</I> a species of bioluminescent sepiolid squid. <I>[See related images: Ventral Dissection of Sepiolid Squid, Squid Egg Mass, and Bioluminescent Marine Bacterium <I>Vibrio fischeri</I>.]</I><BR> <BR> This research is supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation's Directorate for Biological Sciences, Division of Integrative Biology and Neuroscience's Developmental Mechanisms Program.<BR> <BR> The grant was awarded to Dr. Margaret McFall-Ngai, Ph.D., professor and principal investigator, for her studies on the relationship between the Hawaiian sepiolid squid <I>Euprymna scolopes</I> and its luminous bacterial partner <I>Vibrio fischeri</I>. Although all animals have beneficial associations with microbes, the association between Euprymna scolopes and Vibrio fischeri is the only experimental model available to biologists so far.
