MOVIES
Our research projects involve making movies of gastrulation and heart development or 3D reconstructions of the developing heart using the mouse. Do not hesitate to contact us if you are interested in finding out more information.Gastrulation
Brightfield movie of a wildtype embryo imaged from embryonic day 6, at the onset of gastrulation, and for over 20 hours.
Mesodermal cells migration
The movie shows mouse embryonic development from early gastrulation to primitive heart tube formation (~35 hours). Bra/T expression in the notochord is shown in nuclei-blue, cardiomyocytes in blue and mesodermal cells in red.
