Lecture

Developmental Biology: Morphogens and Cell Patterning

Description

This lecture covers the role of morphogens in developmental biology, focusing on the key morphogens Bicoid and Nanos. It discusses their gradients, interactions, and effects on cell patterning, illustrated with experiments in Drosophila and zebrafish embryos. The lecture also explores the molecular mechanisms behind centrosome movement and granule clustering during cell interactions, providing insights into cellular polarization and spatial organization.
