A key requirement to address fundamental questions in developmental biology is the ability to visualise and manipulate endogenous signalling proteins in vivo. Here we generate such an enabling experim...

D’Arcy Thompson predicted a century ago that animal body shape is conditioned by gravity, but there has been no animal model to study how cellular forces are coordinated to generate body shapes that w...

The vertebrate body axis is divided into a number of segments or 'somites', such as the number of vertebrae. But what controls vertebra number, and its variation between species? This paper postulates...
