contributions to developmental biology

Developmental biology explores how organisms grow from a single cell into complex beings. It uncovers the genetic instructions and molecular processes guiding cell division, differentiation, and tissue formation. Researchers identify key genes and signaling pathways that control development, helping us understand congenital conditions and regenerative medicine. This field combines insights from genetics, embryology, and molecular biology to reveal how intricate life forms develop and maintain their structure and function throughout life.
