Great work by @joadelas.bsky.social Lab and colleagues at the @crick.ac.uk
A study from @crick.ac.uk and @ucllifesciences.bsky.social reveals how timing mechanisms, not just spatial cues, shape cell identity during spinal cord development. The findings open up new avenues for both basic developmental biology and clinical applications.
