Gastrulation is a process common to nearly all metazoan organisms during which an embryo with distinct tissue layers develops out of a seemingly unstructured assembly of cells referred to as ...

Around the 14th day of embryonic development, a key stage in human growth called gastrulation kicks off. Cells begin to ...

This model successfully predicted the complex gastrulation flows—the movement of tens of thousands of cells within the chick ...

The study, "Selective utilization of glucose metabolism guides mammalian gastrulation," published in Nature, identifies two distinct waves of glucose utilization during mouse gastrulation.

Experts argue that extending the window for embryo research to 28 days would allow scientists to closely study vital developmental processes that occur during something called gastrulation - when ...

This work is an important contribution to understanding the role of FGF signaling in the induction of primitive-like cells in a 2D system of human gastrulation. The authors provide compelling evidence ...

A central question in modern biology is how the information stored in the genome of a fertilized egg orchestrates the making of an organism. The Nematode C. elegans, aka the worm, is a powerful system ...

2022 Aug 4. doi: 10.1101/gad.349610.122. Online ahead of print. A hypomorphic mutation in Pold1 disrupts the coordination of embryo size expansion and morphogenesis during gastrulation. Chen T, Alcorn ...

Steph has pioneered mechano-biological studies on inversion in the microalga Volvox and gastrulation in the cephalochordate Amphioxus. Paula Elomaa Paula is a plant geneticist and a professor in ...
