The scientific perspective behind cell pattern formation involves observing both the commonly seen principles behind similar cell patterns seen in nature and the visible events of self-organization.

Self-organizing multicellular systems derived from mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells called gastruloids, which previously have been shown to mimic critical events of mammalian gastrulation, have been ...

In developmental cell biology, the phrase “pattern formation” is used in reference to the propagation of complex organizations of cell fates in time and space. Pattern formation is mainly controlled ...

A research team led by Dr. Chaogu Zheng from the School of Biological Sciences at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) has made a significant discovery about the evolutionary age of different type of ...

A recently published LongITools study led by the University of Oulu identified two new childhood BMI patterns, challenging the traditional view of weight status. The findings suggest that BMI ...
