Cellular traffic jams inside a fruit fly embryo might sound like a minor detail, but new work suggests they help flip a fundamental genetic switch. As cells pack together during early development, ...
That first pulse of life, the careful, patterned movement of cells that creates a new organism, has always been something of a secret miracle. Now, MIT engineers have introduced a deep-learning model ...
A small tissue fold in fly embryos, once thought purposeless, plays a vital role in stabilizing tissues. Researchers show that it absorbs stress during early development, and its position and timing ...
The role of tissue that forms between the head and trunk of a fly embryo has been unclear. It turns out that it absorbs forces when nearby cells move and divide. An early fruit-fly embryo comprises a ...
Video of cell division occurring in a developing fly embryo named winner of the 14th annual Nikon Small World in Motion competition. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...
The cephalic furrow is a linear bend in the tissue that can be seen in the side view (yellow asterisks, upper left) or in the cross-section view (yellow arrows, upper right) in a common fruit fly ...
