Curvature strains as a global orchestrator of morphogenesis

Successful morphogenesis on the scale of organs or organisms requires strict coordination between the constituent cells whose action on the local scale must be orchestrated accurately to achieve a functional shape on the global scale. We present a theoretical model in which morphogenetic information...
