Watch the story of foregut folding unfold

A fluorescent embryo allows scientists to watch living cells organise themselves in real time, revealing processes previously impossible to observe.

Summary: Precisely-controlled, sensitive cantilevers measure and perturb tissue forces and mechanical properties in their native locations in live embryos, providing a useful tool to study tissue mech...

Housset et al. show that basal bodies of cone photoreceptors in the mouse retina are planar polarized in a light-dependent manner by the action of transducin and G-protein-signaling modulator protein ...

An observation that cells at the edge of a healing wound readily undergo intercalation leads to the finding that tissue fluidity is crucial for effective wound closure.

Transitions between solid-like and fluid-like states in living tissues have been found in steps of embryonic development and in stages of disease progression. Our current understanding of these transi...

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects the brain from circulating metabolites and plays central roles in neurological diseases. Endothelial cells (ECs) of the BBB are enwrapped by mural cells includin...

The spinal cord originates from bipotent stem cells called neuromesodermal progenitors, which are or
