Don't miss out on the supplementary material, which includes songs composed for Waddington's 50th birthday. doi.org/10.1242/dev.20…

C.H. Waddington's lasting achievements in development and evolution Jonathan B. L. Bard examines some of Waddington's research papers that show why he is one of the few pre-molecular-age developmental biologists still widely remembered. doi.org/10.1242/dev.20…

In preprints – toward a holistic lineage-tracing map of mammalian embryogenesis Yingying Chen & Xianfa Yang discuss a recent preprint from the labs of @JswLab & Zachary Smith, who integrate high-throughput lineage recording with single-cell profiling. doi.org/10.1242/dev.20…
