Layer 4 neurons in primary sensory cortices receive direct sensory information from the
external world 1 , 2 . A general feature of these neurons is their selectivity to specific features of …

Animal morphogenesis arises from the complex interplay between multiple mechanical and
biochemical processes with mutual feedback. Developing an effective, coarse-grained …

10.7554/eLife.03405.001 Texture discrimination is a fundamental function of somatosensory
systems, yet the manner by which texture is coded and spatially represented in the barrel …

One of the major events in animal morphogenesis is the emergence of a polar body axis.
Here, we combine classic grafting techniques with live imaging to explore the plasticity of …

The emergence and stabilization of a body axis is a major step in animal morphogenesis,
determining the symmetry of the body plan as well as its polarity. To advance our …

Morphogenesis is a process in which a well-defined pattern of functional tissues emerges
during the development. One of the great challenges in morphogenesis research is …
