This study screens GPCRs and G proteins in Drosophila to identify those involved in epithelial morphogenesis, finding several with severe phenotypes and disease relevance.

MAPPER identifies differential regulation of Drosophila wing features through automated image analysis, revealing scaling patterns and the role of Piezo in bilateral symmetry.

This study investigates the in vivo role of intercellular calcium signaling in Drosophila wing development, showing its impact on wing morphology and patterning through chemical stimuli and extracellular matrix interactions.

The paper develops a neural-network-based method to analyze intercellular calcium oscillations in Drosophila wing discs and shows that Hedgehog morphogen controls their frequency and spatial patterning.

QuickStitch corrects vignetting in confocal mosaics through recursive normalization, enabling seamless stitching of large immunofluorescence images without visible seams.

This paper develops a computational model to study size control in Drosophila embryonic tissues, showing that passive mechanical forces can explain size regulation but require patterning for asymmetries in cell death.
