New technology to study Acropora eggs
![Figure 1: New technology allows for microinjection experiments using Acropora eggs. Dr. Yuuri Yasuoka developed a method to study Acropora eggs by using glass capillaries attached to a glass slide to trap the eggs when water is slowly removed. A small amount of water remains in the space between the glass pieces and immobilizes the eggs due to the surface tension of the remaining amount of water.](/sites/default/files/styles/embed_lg_1x/public/photos/Coral-JA-Fig1.jpg?itok=L23FxekT)
