Frogs help Fred Hutch find the shape of small things

Frogs Contribute to Fred Hutch Science

Frogs have significantly contributed to Fred Hutch science as a model organism, sharing much of human biology.

After a two-decade absence, Yasuhiro Arimura has reintroduced them to the facility for a new era of science.

In summer 2024, 30 live African clawed frogs arrived at Fred Hutch Cancer Center, and were transferred into water tanks in the Basic Sciences Division.

The amphibians were delivered to the new frog room and settled into their new homes, hiding in plastic tubes or floating among lily pads.
