Seeing is Believing, or How GFP Changed My Approach to Science.

Current topics in developmental biology - 1 Jan 2016

Affolter Markus

Abstract excerpt

The field of "Developmental Biology" has dramatically changed over the past three decades. While genetic analysis had been center stage in the 1980s and continues to be a corner stone for investigations, the introduction of green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the 1990s has allowed us to look into living, developing embryos, and see how cells form tissues and how organ morphogenesis proceeds in real time. The...
