Nuclear speed and cycle length co-vary with local density during syncytial blastoderm formation in a cricket

Early in insect embryo development, many nuclei share one large cell, travel varied paths and self-organize into a single layer. Donoughe et al. illuminate this process with live-imaging, modeling, and experimental changes to the embryo’s shape.
