Most children who have short or tall stature do not have any abnormality and are simply at the extremes of the normal range. Children settle on to a centile position by 2 or 3 years of age and after this a normal child will grow fast enough to maintain themselves on the same centile until puberty.

Identification and characterization of nanobodies targeting the EphA4 receptor [PDF]
The ephrin receptor A4 (EphA4) is one of the receptors in the ephrin system that plays a pivotal role in a variety of cell-cell interactions, mostly studied during development. In addition, EphA4 has been found to play a role in cancer biology as well as

Buckling instabilities driven by tissue growth underpin key developmental events such as the folding of the brain. Tissue growth is disordered due to cell-to-cell variability, but the effects of this variability on buckling are unknown. Here, we analyze what is perhaps the simplest setup of this problem: the buckling of an elastic rod with fixed ends ...
