Dynamic microtubules drive yolk-cytoplasm segregation in the syncytial Drosophila embryo

The paper investigates yolk-cytoplasm segregation in Drosophila embryos and identifies microtubule dynamics as the primary driver of this process.

Emergent Stable Tissue Shapes from the Regulatory Feedback between Morphogens and Cell Growth

This study investigates how feedback between morphogen signaling and cellular growth regulates stable tissue shapes through computational simulations.

Cyto-architecture constrains a photoactivation induced tubulin gradient in the syncytial Drosophila embryo

The paper uses photoactivation to study how cyto-architecture constrains the spread of cytoplasmic and tubulin molecules in Drosophila embryos, showing that tubulin gradients are more restricted by microtubules and plasma membrane structure.

Reprogramming, oscillations and transdifferentiation in epigenetic landscapes

This study investigates how time delays in gene regulatory networks affect cell differentiation and transdifferentiation, showing that delays can lead to oscillations and direct transitions between cell types.
