Voltage gated calcium channels 'read' electric patterns in embryos to create cartilage and bone10/7/2019 Toward Science of Emergence of Form-Formless or Process of Being and Becoming
Exploration initiative on process of form-formless emergence or on process of being and becoming … "We are just beginning to understand how the 'software' of embryonic development (the electrical patterns) are created and interpreted by the 'hardware' (the cells' genes and proteins) to enable the cells to cooperate and organize into a highly-patterned body," said Michael Levin, Vannevar Bush Professor of Biology in the School of Arts & Sciences and director of the Allen Discovery Center at Tufts. "Our collaboration with the genetics team in the Tabin lab extends this field to a very important model, the vertebrate limb, and is a great demonstration of how we get to a better understanding of physics in biology.".
