Strain maps characterize the symmetry of convergence and extension patterns during Zebrafish gastrulation
2018-09-04
Abstract excerpt
During gastrulation of the zebrafish embryo, the cap of blastoderm cells organizes into the axial body plan of the embryo with left-right symmetry and head-tail, dorsal-ventral polarities. Our labs have been interested in the mechanics of early development and have investigated whether these large-scale cells movements can be described as tissue-level mechanical strain by a tectonics-based approach. The first step...
