Developmental Pattern Formation: Spanish Contributions from a Biophysical Perspective
Biophysica, 2023 During the last few decades, developmental pattern formation has evolved from being a descriptive discipline to a quantitative one. That process has been possible due to the implementation of multidisciplinary approaches where biophysicists and ...

The unappreciated generative role of cell movements in pattern formation
Royal Society Open Science, 2022 The mechanisms underpinning the formation of patterned cellular landscapes has been the subject of extensive study as a fundamental problem of developmental biology.

Retinoic acid influences the timing and scaling of avian wing development
Cell Reports, 2022 Summary: A fundamental question in biology is how embryonic development is timed between different species. To address this problem, we compared wing development in the quail and the larger chick.

Agent-based models in cellular systems
Frontiers in Physics, 2023 This mini-review discusses agent-based models as modeling techniques for studying pattern formation of multi-cellular systems in biology. We introduce and compare different agent-based model frameworks with respect to spatial representation ...

The kinase regulator mob1 acts as a patterning protein for stentor morphogenesis. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2014 Morphogenesis and pattern formation are vital processes in any organism, whether unicellular or multicellular. But in contrast to the developmental biology of plants and animals, the principles of morphogenesis and pattern formation in single cells ...

Variability in the control of cell division underlies sepal epidermal patterning in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2010 How growth and proliferation are precisely controlled in organs during development and how the regulation of cell division contributes to the formation of complex cell type patterns are important questions in developmental biology.

Synthetic spatial patterning in bacteria: advances based on novel diffusible signals
Microbial Biotechnology, 2022 Summary Engineering multicellular patterning may help in the understanding of some fundamental laws of pattern formation and thus may contribute to the field of developmental biology.

Fetal functional brain age assessed from universal developmental indices obtained from neuro-vegetative activity patterns. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Fetal brain development involves the development of the neuro-vegetative (autonomic) control that is mediated by the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Disturbances of the fetal brain development have implications for diseases in later postnatal life.
