Loss of Notch signaling therefore causes excess neural differentiation. A second broad category is “inductive” signaling, whereby activation of Notch induces the expression of molecules with ...

We believe that finding new hearing mutants in Drosophila may help identify mammalian genes that regulate hair cell development and function. How does Drosophila hear? Displacement of air particles ...

By using the Drosophila pupal wing, we are interested in elucidating how tissue morphogenesis and dynamic cellular communications are regulated at the subcellular level. Osamu is a Principal ...
