Mammalian study working on cytoplasmic RNA in rats and rabbits.

Seaton specialized in embryology, studying biological processes in the eggs of several species across her career, including early studies in morphogenesis. She also conducted a mammalian study by working on cytoplasmic RNA in rats and rabbits. The work led to a "segregationist" theory, that was, according to a later director of the School, "long considered the most coherent interpretation of the differentiation of the two fundamental cell groups cell groups in the mammalian blastocyst". Seaton was also awarded several grants for her research in antibodies and cell division in sea-urchin eggs.
