The evolutionarily conserved polarity protein Crumbs links the regulation of cytoskeleton dynamics and cell-cell adhesion with epithelial morphogenesis.

Cell biology analyses in Drosophila epithelial tissues reveal novel mechanisms connecting epithelial polarity proteins with Myosin-dependent cell contractility.

The polarity protein crumbs controls apical secretion and the architecture of the apical domain by modulating PI(4,5)P₂ levels and the organization of apical Rab6-, Rab11-, and Rab30-dependent trafficking.

Foxc1 proteins prepare the genomes of neural crest-derived cells to facilitate their later development into the cartilages that support the embryonic face.

Early-career researchers can learn about peer review by discussing preprints at journal clubs and sending feedback to the authors.

Zebrafish have lubricated joints similar to ours and are a tractable model for arthritis research.

Manifold learning of longitudinal brain network data provides novel insights into adolescent structural connectome maturation, and how multiple scales of cortical and subcortical organization interact in typical neurodevelopment.

Arp2/3 complex-mediated actin polymerization shapes how B lymphocytes probe the surface of antigen-presenting cells, promotes coalescence of B cell receptor (BCR) microclusters, amplifies BCR signaling, and enhances B cell activation.

Dramatic phenotypic divergence of crustacean mushroom bodies map to phylogenetic lineages, thereby offering unexplored opportunities for relating divergent cognitive centers to different ecologies and behavioral repertoires required to negotiate them.

Cartilage cells transition through a proliferative intermediate to give rise to bone and marrow fat cells in long bones.
