Chemical ablation of olfactory sensory neurons blocks cerebrospinal fluid outflow into the nasal epithelium, leading to alterations of cerebrospinal fluid dynamics.

Quantitative 4D image analysis identifies a group of cells which enter into the otic primordium during morphogenesis and instructs neuronal specification.

A digital flesh model of the sail-backed dinosaur Spinosaurus was tested and performed very poorly in water, favoring the view of this dinosaur as a two-legged, wading ambush predator of large fish in shallow waterways and not an aquatic dinosaur.

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

During zebrafish embryogenesis, dact1 and dact2 are necessary for axis lengthening and craniofacial morphogenesis, and the protease capn8 is misexpressed in dact1/2 mutants.

Neural plate border cells co-express neural, neural crest, and placodal transcriptional programs before cell fate decisions occur and are transcriptionally heterogeneous along the antero-posterior and medial-lateral axis.

A novel allele of serum response factor (SRF) reveals distinct co-factor requirements in different developmental contexts, raising issues of redundancy, threshold requirements, or novel co-factor usage.

RNA sequencing of the African clawed frog has identified hundreds of putative direct Six1 and Eya1 target genes, including transcriptional regulators of neuronal progenitors and neuronal/sensory differentiation.

A combination of morpholino-based knockdowns, pharmacological inhibitors, and rescue assays reveal a novel role for natriuretic peptide signaling in the regulation of cell fates in the embryonic ectoderm.

A thorough insight into the previously unrecognised role of a critical developmental regulator known as TBXT in influencing the specification of human trunk neural crest cells, the presumed precursors of the childhood tumour neuroblastoma.
