Drosophila as a Model for Developmental Biology: Stem Cell-Fate Decisions in the Developing Nervous System

Stem cells face a diversity of choices throughout their lives. At specific times, they may decide to initiate cell division, terminal differentiation, or apoptosis, or they may enter a quiescent non-proliferative state. Neural stem cells in the Drosophila central nervous system do all of these, at s...
