Successful embryonic development depends on a series of patterning and symmetry breaking events. Developmental patterning is often coordinated by organizers, specialized signaling centers that dictate ...

Researchers have investigated how highly organized patterns of neural activity emerge during development. Published in Nature Communications, an international collaboration between researchers at the ...

Biologists have used human pluripotent stem cells to grow sesame-seed-sized heart models, called cardioids, that spontaneously self-organize to develop a hollow chamber without the need of ...

Life moves in mysterious ways—and perhaps especially so for organisms that undergo dramatic shifts in levels of ...

Biologist Sasha Mendjan at the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna and his team have used human pluripotent stem cells to grow sesame-seed-sized heart models, called cardioids, that spontaneously ...
