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

I’m taking part in One Walk London on 2026-06-20 for Breakthrough T1D! Please support me with my challenge and give whatever you can spare. Breakthrough T1D's research has led to amazing developments ...

Understanding cell identity and plasticity | Our group is interested in understanding the interplay between extrinsic signals and intrinsic determinants in establishing and maintaining cell identities...

Jia et al. develop SPACE-seq, a versatile technology that integrates CRISPR barcoding with spatial transcriptomics to jointly map cell ancestry, identity, and location. Compatible with diverse spatial platforms, SPACE-seq can be applied to a wide range of biological questions, revealing clonal architecture, migration, and fate-shaping interactions in development and cancer.

Brassard and Wells discuss how next-generation human pluripotent stem cell-derived organoids are achieving greater cellular complexity by more faithfully reproducing developmental processes. Advances in tissue interactions, specialized cell incorporation, and bioengineering technologies are enabling increasingly physiologically relevant organoid models to study human development, disease mechanisms, and regenerative biology.
