Embryos are most alike in mid-development — the classic developmental “hourglass”. New research shows this pattern is already built into individual cell lineages. Find out more: www.evolbio.mpg.de/3867602/news... @marketa-kau.bsky.social @amordamatac.bsky.social

Another study from my team, just published in PNAS! Are you interested in the co-evolution and co-development of the brain and skull? Read more here: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... #Evolution #Development #Genetics #MN1 #EvoDevo #Brain #Skull #Vertebrates

A new study from my lab uncovers the evolutionary origins of the cells that build our skeleton. Hypertrophic chondrocytes evolved earlier than thought-in the common ancestor of Gnathostomes. doi.org/10.1093/evle... #Evolution #CellTypes #SkeletalBiology
