Hello :) The peer-reviewed version of our cephalic furrow paper is out:

Patterned invagination prevents mechanical instability during gastrulation https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-09480-3

Back-to-back with:

Divergent evolutionary strategies pre-empt tissue collision in gastrulation https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-09447-4

And a commentary piece:

Flies evolved a shock-absorber tissue used during embryonic development https://doi.org/10.1038/d41586-025-02532-8

I'm excited to announce that our cephalic furrow paper is out! We investigated the function of this enigmatic invagination using live imaging and modeling and found that it plays a mechanical role during fly gastrulation https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.03.30.534554
