Jawsfest: new perspectives on neural crest lineages and morphogenesis
Abstract
The neural crest is a fascinating population of cells that migrate long distances in the developing embryo to generate many different derivatives. It also occupies a central position in the origin and patterning of the vertebrate head, and has generated debates about issues such as cell programming versus plasticity and the role of cell death in early morphogenesis. These aspects of the field were revisited and discussed in a recent meeting organized to honour the retirement of Jim Weston and his contribution to the field.
