Slow, steady tissue forces may be as important as genes and biochemistry in shaping developing organs

In the past, scientists believed that the fast-acting biochemistry of genes and proteins was responsible for directing the forces that shape developing organs. But a new study from Syracuse University shows that steady, powerful ...
