The paper shows that non-specific carriers in avian carotenogenesis drive metabolic network diversification by resetting specialization, enabling physiological sensitivity and adaptability to external inputs.

The paper presents a developmental atlas of protein expression during zebra finch beak maturation, revealing spatiotemporal patterns of signaling pathway coexpression and their role in tissue differentiation.

The paper constructs an atlas of avian beak morphogenesis and shows how subcellular compartmentalization of proteins expands the regulatory repertoire of a conserved developmental network.

This study shows intrinsically disordered proteins act as reset mechanisms in regulatory networks, enabling developmental transitions by integrating physical and genetic processes.

The paper shows that cell jamming transitions in avian beak primordia modulate regulatory protein gradients and drive evolutionary divergence by altering tissue-level patterns.

The paper shows how transient epithelial mimicry in avian beak development allows neural crest cells to balance stemness with regional specification through cycles of specialization and homogenization.

The paper introduces a Fiji plugin for automated whole-image analysis of protein expression and cell morphology across developmental stages in bird tissues.
