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

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 …

Understanding how mechanics complement bio-signaling in defining patterns during
morphogenesis is an outstanding challenge. Here, we utilize the multicellular polyp Hydra to …

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 …

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 …

Understanding the collective physical processes that drive robust morphological transitions
in animal development necessitates the characterization of the relevant fields involved in …

Morphogenesis involves the dynamic interplay of biochemical, mechanical, and electrical
processes. Here, we ask to what extent can the course of morphogenesis be modulated and …

Biological systems provide a prime example for naturally occurring complex, far from
equilibrium, processes that exemplify the emergence of order from the underlying microscopic …

The outstanding regeneration of Hydra’s excised tissue fragments occurs via initial
spontaneous bending to some quasi-stable shape in several minutes. However, the underlying …
