Check out our latest issue with thought-provoking Editorial & Perspective articles & cutting-edge Research, Resources & Methods papers! On the cover we have a scanning electron microscopy image of zebrafish larva 🐟️ 📗 journals.biologists.com/dmm/issue/19/2

Zebrafish larva imaged with scanning electron microscopy at 4 days post-fertilisation following exposure to 10 µM elafibranor. Affected surface periderm cells are dysmorphic, with reduced surface area due to increased apical constriction. These results provide new insights linking compromised skin barrier integrity to alterations in midface morphogenesis. See article by Molteni et al. (dmm052649).
