Studying the shape of tissues and organs is critical to understanding how they are formed. Embryonic development happens in ...

Human fingers and toes do not grow outward; instead, they form from within a larger foundational bud, as intervening cells recede to reveal the digits beneath. This is among many processes captured ...

Scientists have created a spatial atlas of the incredible process of human limb development, including steps that show digits emerging from a bud as cells recede, instead of growing outward. With ...

LimbLab is an open-source tool that can help developmental biology researchers visualise and analyse 3D data for ...
