Publication Cover

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development: Developmental mechanisms, patterning and evolution

There is a new collection of reviews on plant and animal development published in the August 2020 issue of Current Opinion in Genetics & Development. The issue was edited by Richard Carthew, Director of the NSF-Simons Center for Quantitative Biology, and Amy Shyer, Assistant Professor and Head of the Laboratory of Morphogenesis at The Rockefeller University.

This special issue is authored by world leaders who apply quantitative experimental and modeling approaches to the fields of plant and animal development.

The issue includes a review by NSF-Simons Fellow Alexandria Volkening, Linking genotype, cell behavior, and phenotype: multidisciplinary perspectives with a basis in zebrafish patterns .

Current Opinion in Genetics and Development 2020, 63:iii–v For a complete overview see the Issue https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gde.2020.06.011
