The people behind the papers - Yonit Maroudas-Sacks and Marko Popovic
No full textDuring Hydra regeneration, supracellular actomyosin fibres are disoriented at two distinct foci of the regenerating tissue. These sites of nematic topological defects eventually form the new head and foot of the regenerated animal.
