How egg shape coordinates the cascade of early development
The curved shape of a zebrafish egg causes unequal cell divisions, creating larger cells near the animal pole and smaller ...
Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG)Aug 9 2024 A key question that remains in biology and biophysics is how three-dimensional tissue shapes emerge during animal ...
When a baby enters the world, their brain contains billions of neurons awaiting connection. The first 1,000 days of life, from conception to age two, represent a critical period where over 85% of ...

Geometry shapes life: Embryo curvature acts as instruction manual for coordinated cell division
Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...
Researchers report that neuronal activity is necessary and sufficient for astrocytes to develop their complex shape, and interrupting this developmental process results in disrupted brain function.
