Long-term ex ovo culture of Caenorhabditis elegans embryos

This paper develops a method to culture C. elegans embryos ex ovo, enabling long-term exposure to small molecules for studying developmental processes.

Notch-dependent left-right asymmetry in β-catenin-TCF activity instructs anteroposterior positioning of motor neurons in the C. elegans ventral nerve cord

Axis reset is rate limiting for onset of whole-body regenerative abilities during planarian development

This study identifies axis reset regulation as critical for the development of whole-body regeneration in planarians, showing that head regeneration depends on developmental stage and axial patterning.

IPPK-1 and IP6 contribute to ventral nerve cord assembly in C. elegans

This study shows that IPPK-1 and IP6 are critical for ventral nerve cord assembly in C. elegans, with IP6 rescue of mutant defects.

Comparisons of cell proliferation and cell death across life histories in the hemichordate Schizocardium californicum

The paper examines cell proliferation and death patterns during development and metamorphosis in Schizocardium californicum, finding distinct proliferative patterns and limited cell death in larvae.
