This paper uses ex utero culture to study mouse embryogenesis from gastrulation to fetal development, revealing metabolically independent programs and environmental influences on metabolic transitions.

The paper shows OCT4 prevents cell fate change by blocking MITF's effects in embryonic stem cells and other differentiated cells.

This paper maps high-resolution epigenetic and biosynthetic changes during reprogramming of fibroblasts to iPSCs, identifying two gene modules regulated by different mechanisms.

This study shows that most trans-differentiated cells derived from mouse fibroblasts using OSKM factors acquire pluripotency transiently before differentiation.
