In light of this, the team from Duke, consisting of Sarah Zylinski and Nick Brandley, is collecting squid eyes and using microspectrophotometry (MSP) to elucidate how different species that live at different depths, and hence inhabit different light environments (for instance, deep-sea species versus vertically migrating ones), are "tuned" to absorb light of different colors.
