Hi people, wondering what sets the size of an organ? Is it pre-determined during development? How does the size remain constant post-repair? #developmentalbiology #organsize #repair #stemcells

Much needed!

Congratulations! 🎊

Two text bubbles in yellow and blue on the left and the Node logo on the right. Text reads "Honest conversations: creating frank conversations around less-discussed topics on the Node"

Our 'Honest conversations' series is a place for people to write about the ups and downs in their academic journey and create frank conversations around less-discussed topics.

Read the posts, keep the conversations going, and perhaps write a post yourself:
