We investigate the role of mechanics in early brain development as part of CRC 1540 – Exploring Brain Mechanics. Specifically, we study the interplay of mechanical factors and planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling in early nervous system development of Xenopus laevis. We’re developing organoids with tunable mechanical properties and extracellular matrix proteins to study […]We investigate the role of mechanics in early brain development as part of CRC 1540 – Exploring Brain Mechanics.
