Extractions: Other languages: Deutsch Simple English From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Developmental biology is the study of the process by which organisms grow and develop. Originating in embryology , today developmental biology studies the genetic control of cell growth differentiation and " morphogenesis ," which is the process that gives rise to tissues organs and anatomy . The related field of evolutionary developmental biology was formed largely in the and is a synthesis of findings from molecular developmental biology and evolutionary biology which considers the diversity of organismal form in an evolutionary context. Often used model organisms for developmental biology are the round worm Caenorhabditis elegans , the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster , the zebrafish Brachydanio rerio , the mouse Mus musculus , and the weed Arabidopsis thaliana The findings of developmental biology can help to understand (or some day, cure) developmental malfunctions such as chromosomal aberration , for example, down syndrome . An understanding of the specialization of stem cells to specific tissues and organs could lead to the specific cloning of organs for medical purposes.

Extractions: Log in Help From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Evolutionary developmental biology (often referred to as 'evo-devo ' or evolution of development ) is a field of biology that compares the developmental processes of different animals in an attempt to determine the ancestral relationship between organisms and how developmental processes evolved. The discovery of genes regulating development in model organisms allowed for comparisons to be made with genes and genetic networks of related organisms. Table of contents showTocToggle("show","hide") 1 Introduction 4.1 See also During the and more comparative molecular sequence data between different kinds of organisms has been amassed and detailed understanding of the molecular basis of the developmental mechanisms which are encoded by those genes has become clearer. Evolutionary developmental biology has arisen as a response to these growing trends. One of the more surprising and perhaps, counter-intuitive, results of such research in evolutionary developmental biology done in this period, is that both the diversity of

Department Of Cell Biology, Yale University Offers graduate and medical students comprehensive training in neurobiology, developmental biology, infectious disease biology, molecular biology of nucleic acids, immunology, glycobiology, molecular biology and molecular medicine. http://info.med.yale.edu/cellbio/
Extractions: O ver its brief 30-year history, cell biology has matured into a vigorous, and rapidly expanding discipline. Today, it forms an essential bridge between important basic fields such as biochemistry, developmental biology, physiology, neurobiology, molecular genetics, immunobiology and microbiology. Since cell biology focuses on the functions of cells in diverse contexts, it also provides a natural connection between basic biological research and medicine. C ell Biology's range of interest is exceedingly broad, extending from general issues such as the biogenesis of cellular membranes, the properties of the extracellular matrix, the dynamics of the cytoskeleton, the interactions between the nucleus and cytosol, and the cellular basis of tissue function, to quite detailed questions of molecular function and recognition. True to the interdisciplinary origins of the field, cell biologists tend to rely on a wide spectrum of methodological and conceptual approaches. Currently, molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics and a variety of morphological tools feature prominently among them. The style of working is more problem than methods-oriented. A typical cell biologist is a hypothesis-driven experimentalist. T he Department of Cell Biology at Yale Medical School has, since its inception in 1974, been exceptionally active and well-recognized both in education and in research. While the main research focus has centered around cellular membranes and their functions, the department also has major activities in neurobiology, developmental biology, infectious disease biology, molecular biology of nucleic acids, immunology, glycobiology, molecular biology and molecular medicine. By pooling together the broad expertise available at Yale with the specific strengths of its own faculty, the Department offers graduate and medical students

Supplemental data Development is a primary research journal that provides an insight into mechanisms of plant and animal development, covering all aspects from molecular and cellular to tissue levels. It aims to act as a forum for all research that offers a genuine insight into developmental mechanisms. Studies on both plant and animal development are welcome and can be focused upon any aspect of the developmental process, at all levels of biological organization from the molecular and cellular to the tissue levels. Experimental papers will be given the highest priority. Manuscripts that are entirely descriptive will only be accepted if they are of particularly high quality and offer novel insight into developmental mechanisms. Development is published twice monthly (24 issues/year).

P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Stephen Alexander's laboratory at the University of Missouri uses Dictyiostelim discoideum as a model system for studies on: 1. molecular and cellular mechanisms of resistance to anticancer drugs; 2. regulation of protein secretion during development. Ethan Bier's Lab, Department of Biology, UC San Diego, is interested in how the Dpp and EGF-R signaling pathways interact to define the neurogenic region of the Drosophila blastoderm embryo, and how these two pathways then collaborate to promote wing vein development during early metamorphosis. They use a combination of molecular and genetic approaches to investigate these developmental questions. Helen Blau's Laboratory , Stanford University School of Medicine, is internationally known for establishing the plasticity of the differentiated state. Dr. Blau's elegant heterokaryon experiments proved that silent muscle genes could be activated in diverse specialized adult cells. Recently she showed that adult bone-marrow-derived stem cells are similarly plastic. Her innovative approaches have profoundly impacted biology and medicine.

Extractions: vanderbilt.edu The Vanderbilt University Program in Developmental Biology offers a stimulating and supportive environment for researchers to study pattern formation, cellular differentiation and morphogenesis during the developmental process. Membership in the Developmental Biology Program is currently at 200 and includes researchers, postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, technicians and support personal throughout Vanderbilt's campus. Program members utilize many different approaches in their attempt to answer developmental questions based on their particular field of study. This 'mixing pot' of scientific disciplines has given our members the freedom to adopt an interspecies approach to their research. Some of the fundamental questions addressed by the researchers in our program are: How is the basic body plan of an embryo established? What are the factors that drive embryonic morphogenesis? How is a heart formed? How do neurons choose synaptic partners?
