A nice tweetorial by @ManningResearch on this work is in the following thread: xitter.cf/ManningResearch/status…
How do dynamical forces generated by tissue movement affect organ morphology changes during embryonic development? Using Kupffer’s vesicle in zebrafish embryo as a model organ we showed that dynamical forces produce shape changes in a developing organ. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… 1/n
