In the earliest stages of life, mammalian embryos start as a disorganized cluster of cells. As development progresses, these cells become organized into well-defined shapes and structures. This ...

The edges of biological tissues create boundaries that help cells position in a magnet-like manner, giving order to developing embryos.

Getting it over the finish line was a labor of love—and now, more than five years after her death, the lab of former Sloan ...

The team mapped the spatial and temporal patterns of glucose uptake using single-cell-resolution imaging of developing mouse embryos, stem cell models, and embryo-derived tissues. They found that the ...

Protein modifications are key to cell survival because they ensure they do what they are supposed to do in a healthy system. One vital modification involves adding sugar molecules to proteins, a ...
