When it Pays to Rush: Interpreting Morphogen Gradients Prior to Steady-State
Timothy E Saunders, Martin Howard
During development, morphogen gradients precisely determine the position of gene expression boundaries despite the inevitable presence of fluctuations. Recent experiments suggest t…

Morphogen Profiles Can Be Optimised to Buffer Against Noise
Timothy E Saunders, Martin Howard
Morphogen profiles play a vital role in biology by specifying position in embryonic development. However, the factors that influence the shape of a morphogen profile remain poorly…
