CELL 8202 - Cellular Mechanisms of Animal Development

Effective Start Date: 02/14/2017
The course will cover the questions of the cellular aspects of the development of vertebrate and invertebrate embryos with focus on cellular mechanisms controlling the morphogenesis. This will include cell adhesion, cell polarity, cell movements (convergence extension, ingression, invagination, evagination, tubulogenesis, delamination), growth control during both early embryonic events, such as the gastrulation, and during organogenesis.
