Life begins with a single fertilized cell that gradually transforms into a multicellular organism. This process requires ...

Scientists headed by a team at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub San Francisco (CZ Biohub SF) reported on the development of Zebrahub, a dynamic, state-of-the-art atlas of zebrafish embryonic development.

The curved shape of a zebrafish egg causes unequal cell divisions, creating larger cells near the animal pole and smaller cells at the margin—a size gradient that controls the timing of everything ...

When early cartographers undertook perilous expeditions to map unknown corners of the world with sextants, compasses, and hand-drawn diagrams, it’s unlikely they imagined that someday anyone with an ...

Scientists have uncovered a new way embryonic cells divide when conventional mechanisms fail. Cell division underpins all ...

Cell division is an essential process for all life on Earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early ...
