Since then, however, many investigators have unearthed molecular evidence that the genes involved in odontogenesis (tooth development) are indeed retained in chickens. A primary step in reaching ...

Caleb Gordon ’18, completed a research thesis in the Jackman lab using a CRISPR/Cas9 mutagenesis and GFP visualization approach to carefully examine the function of several genes during embryonic ...

The researchers found that the cells feeling the stronger pressure stop growing and start sending signals to organize the other surrounding cells in the tooth. Embryos use several of these ...

Studying the early development of human embryos is challenging due to ethical constraints and technical difficulties.

The answer to this question lies in the fact that milk teeth develop in the embryonic stage ... In contrast, the development of enamel on permanent teeth starts at birth and continues until ...
