It has been calibrating hunger in Gaza for decades, initially calculating shipments to exert pressure while avoiding starvation. Continue reading...

During tissue formation, dynamic cell shape changes drive morphogenesis while asymmetric divisions create cellular diversity. We found that the shifts in cell morphology that shape tissues could conco...

Nature Communications - Adult zebrafish are capable of heart regeneration, but how the collagenous injury site is replaced remains unclear. Here they provide an in-depth analysis of cardiomyocyte...

Nature Cardiovascular Research - Cantu Gutierrez et al. identify the common and unique transcriptional regulatory networks in the endothelium of six different organs throughout development, and...

Cancer mutations in the PIK3CA gene cause congenital disorders. The endothelium is among the most frequently affected tissues in these disorders, displaying aberrant vascular overgrowth in the form of...

The Hogan laboratory is offering work for a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral fellow in the area of lymphatic development and regeneration.

This fellowship is for non-UK scientists who are at an early stage of their research career and wish to conduct research in the UK.

Lupu, Grainger, Kirschnick et al. show that, contrary to prevailing belief, the initial specification of mammalian lymphatic endothelial cells primarily occurs from previously unidentified mesenchymal...

The origins of mammalian lymphatic vessels have been debated since the early twentieth century; recent data are shifting the balance toward a less widely accepted view.
