Highlighted Article: YAP activation in notochord progenitors of vgll4b mutant zebrafish leads to enhanced progenitor addition to the notochord, compromising the ability of notochord cells to undergo v...

Lattice light-sheet microscopy (LLSM) enables researchers to capture high-speed 3D videos of living cells with high definition and minimal damage. However, this technology generates terabytes of data....

Summary: A guide to mechanics in development: unlock how forces, material properties and geometry shape the forms of life.

Human embryonic development proceeds more slowly than in mice. The segmentation clock offers a tractable model for studying species-specific developme…

Using quantitative live imaging, Green et al. show that proneural gene expression is biased by positional cues and that Notch is activated only after neuroblast selection in the Drosophila embryo. Thi...

Adult intestinal size plasticity is driven not only by epithelial stem cells but also by remodeling of the surrounding visceral musculature. Sex- and reproduction-dependent muscle remodeling controls ...

This event will take place on Friday October 2nd, 2026, at the Department of Zoology (Main Lecture Theatre), University of Cambridge, Downing Street CB2 3EJ, 12:30 - 18:30. There will be no posters, ...

Gastrulation is the morphogenetic process by which the single-layered pluripotent epiblast is reorganised into the three germ layers and the basic bod…

Proportional organ growth requires tissue-level control of cell behavior. Yet the cues that adapt growth rates, especially after organ injury, remain unclear. Here, we uncover that developing organs a...

Basement membranes are scaffolds of proteins, like collagen, that give organs shape. During development, basement membranes must adapt to the growing organ. We infer how fast the basement membrane ada...

Development requires precise temporal coordination of parallel cellular programs, such as molting and cell division in C elegans larvae. This study shows reduced insulin signaling delays both of proce...
