We take an integrative approach as we aim to understand how the final size of the developing wing is achieved not
only during normal development but also in stress conditions.
«If you want to try to harness the potential of stem cells to treat disease or to recover from an injury,» Dr. Mann said, «It's important to know what the behavior of these stem cells is in an
animal during normal development.»
For decades, biologists assumed that these retrotransposons serve no
purpose during normal development, but He's findings suggest they may be closely tied to the decision - making of early embryos.
With our unique robotic microscope technology, can we identify the major determinants of cell
fate during normal development of stem cells and in neurodegenerative disease?
Cowan, whose work tends to focus on identifying novel genes related to conditions such as autism and drug addiction, explained that FMRP controls the remodeling and strength of connections in the
brain during normal development.
The «Meet Our Scientists» video entitled «Our relative the fly» presents the research performed by Marco Millán on the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of tissue
growth during normal development, tissue homeostasis, and tumorigenesis.
During normal development, epigenetic programming restricts both the genes a cell can use and the cell's developmental potency.
During normal development, a stimulated neuron develops fat and short spines (which are thought to transmit signals better), while underused spines on the dendrites wither.
During normal development, a baby learns to control its limbs by creating a mental map of the movable parts of its body — a motor homunculus of sorts.
In the study, scientists examined all of the genes that turn «on» or «off» in any given cell
during normal development.
During normal development, a puppy's eyes are enveloped by a membrane which stretches and breaks away by 8 weeks of age.
