The people behind the papers – Masanori Kawaguchi, Kota Sugiyama and Yoshiyuki Seki
Masanori Kawaguchi, Kota Sugiyama and Yoshiyuki Seki at Kwansei Gakuin University in Japan tell us the story behind their research addressing the evolution of pluripotency with an analysis of the function of PRDM14 in zebrafish, amphioxus and sea urchin.
Read this Primer by Salvador Herrera and Erika Bach to get an overview of the role of JAK/STAT signaling in stem cells and regeneration in Drosophila testis, intestine and appendages and see the similarities between Drosophila and vertebrates.
Developmental biology has achieved many amazing accomplishments over the years, but the field needs to consider new strategies for increasing its visibility within the wider scientific community, writes Leonard Zon.
Majlinda Lako and colleagues share an integrated transcriptional and immunohistochemical analysis of human retinogenesis in vivo. Read the highlight and the full Human Development article
