Reconstructing 3D deformation dynamics for curved epithelial sheet morphogenesis from positional data of sparsely-labeled cells
Quantifying deformation patterns of curved epithelial sheets is challenging owing to imaging difficulties. Here the authors develop a method to obtain a quantitative description of 3D tissue deformation dynamics from a small set of cell positional data and applied it to chick forebrain morphogenesis...
