Signaling from the limb nerves regulates the rate of growth and the overall size of the regenerating limb.

Novel binding sites within a chordotonal-specific enhancer of the delilah gene integrates opposing signals of Prospero and D-Pax2 to control the alternative differentiation programs of cap versus scolopale cells.

Constitutive deficiency of AP2γ transcription factor impairs hippocampal glutamatergic neurogenesis and induces alterations on limbic-cortical connectivity that contribute to anxiety-like behavior and cumulative memory deficits in mice from juvenile to adult periods.

The migrating pair of cardiac progenitors in the chordate Ciona robusta is the simplest possible supracellular cell collective whose organization helps them overcome resistance from surrounding embryonic tissues during cell migration.

Regrowing new body parts requires neural input to restore appropriately sized limbs in salamanders.

A combination of single-cell RNA sequencing of the developing septum and genetic fate mapping is used to analyze the origin of septal neurons.

Highly efficient, precise, and scalable CRISPR/Cas9-mediated generation of endogenously tagged alleles in a vertebrate model.

Human pluripotent stem cell modeling of the ATOH1 lineage identifies a temporal shift in the expression of key transcriptional regulators in the developing human cerebellum, this molecular divergence may drive the protracted development of the human cerebellum compared to rodents.

CRMP4 is a new actor in the guidance cue Semaphorin-3E pathway, crucially involved in the establishment of the fornix, a key axonal tract for memory and emotional control.

Reconstruction of cell-type families in the purple sea urchin larva reveals unprecedented transcriptional diversity, stunning neuronal complexity and a missing link to pancreas evolution, suggesting this approach can be also used to uncover hidden cell type homologies.
