Timely TGFβ signalling inhibition induces notochord Nature - Through analysis of developing chick embryos and in vitro differentiation of embryonic stem cells, a study develops a method to generate a model of the human trunk with a notochord.

🚀🚀 I'm starting my own lab @ HKU ! !
The lab will be investigating how cells build complex tissues — with a focus on tissue boundaries, niche establishment, and many open questions sparked by our recent work on trunk-organoids rdcu.be/eqsho 🫡🫡
