This project explores how tissue size is regulated during animal development, using fruit flies as a model. It aims to understand the mechanisms that control cell growth and division, which has implications for cancer and regenerative medicine.
Control of tissue size during animal development is of crucial importance to achieve the correct body/organ size and shape, and it underpins the evolution of animal size and architecture.
How is tissue size tightly controlled during development?
How is each cell in a developing animal instructed to stop growing and dividing when the correct body size and shape has been reached?
Answers to these questions are of fundamental importance to our understanding of diseases such as cancer as well as for…
