Probing Death Decisions from Morphogen Gradient Fields

University of Liverpool Department of Molecular and Clinical Cancer Medicine

Morphogen gradient scaling is one of the hottest fields in developmental biology at the moment. Scaling is fundamental, explaining how the machinery that controls pattern formation in development (the morphogens) can adapt, so that organs of different sizes show morphological structures which are proportioned.

The Rhonski project: Examining Rho and Notch signalling in skin development and disease

St George’s, University of London Medical and Biomedical Education Institute

The skin provides a crucial protective layer between the human body and the outside world. Whilst the epidermis forms a barrier against infection, the inner dermis houses the blood vessels required to sustain the hair follicles and cells contained within both the epidermal and dermal layers.
