  text: Intercellular signaling molecules, known as morphogens, act at a long range
    in developing tissues to provide spatial information and control properties such
    as cell fate and tissue growth. The production, transport, and removal of morphogens
    shape their concentration profiles in time and space. Downstream signaling cascades
    and gene regulatory networks within cells then convert the spatiotemporal morphogen
    profiles into distinct cellular responses. Current challenges are to understand
    the diverse molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying morphogen gradient formation,
    as well as the logic of downstream regulatory circuits involved in morphogen interpretation.
    This knowledge, combining experimental and theoretical results, is essential to
    understand emerging properties of morphogen-controlled systems, such as robustness
    and scaling.

  text: Despite its fundamental importance for development, the question of how organs
    achieve their correct size and shape is poorly understood. This complex process
    requires coordination between the generation of cell mass and the morphogenetic
    mechanisms that sculpt tissues. These processes are regulated by morphogen signalling
    pathways and mechanical forces. Yet, in many systems, it is unclear how biochemical
    and mechanical signalling are quantitatively interpreted to determine the behaviours
    of individual cells and how they contribute to growth and morphogenesis at the
    tissue scale. In this review, we discuss the development of the vertebrate neural
    tube and somites as an example of the state of knowledge, as well as the challenges
    in understanding the mechanisms of tissue size control in vertebrate organogenesis.
    We highlight how the recent advances in stem cell differentiation and organoid
    approaches can be harnessed to provide new insights into this question.

  text: As developing tissues grow in size and undergo morphogenetic changes, their
    material properties may be altered. Such changes result from tension dynamics
    at cell contacts or cellular jamming. Yet, in many cases, the cellular mechanisms
    controlling the physical state of growing tissues are unclear. We found that at
    early developmental stages, the epithelium in the developing mouse spinal cord
    maintains both high junctional tension and high fluidity. This is achieved via
    a mechanism in which interkinetic nuclear movements generate cell area dynamics
    that drive extensive cell rearrangements. Over time, the cell proliferation rate
    declines, effectively solidifying the tissue. Thus, unlike well-studied jamming
    transitions, the solidification uncovered here resembles a glass transition that
    depends on the dynamical stresses generated by proliferation and differentiation.
    Our finding that the fluidity of developing epithelia is linked to interkinetic
    nuclear movements and the dynamics of growth is likely to be relevant to multiple
    developing tissues.

  text: All vertebrates have a spinal cord with dimensions and shape specific to their
    species. Yet how species‐specific organ size and shape are achieved is a fundamental
    unresolved question in biology. The formation and sculpting of organs begins during
    embryonic development. As it develops, the spinal cord extends in anterior–posterior
    direction in synchrony with the overall growth of the body. The dorsoventral (DV)
    and apicobasal lengths of the spinal cord neuroepithelium also change, while at
    the same time a characteristic pattern of neural progenitor subtypes along the
    DV axis is established and elaborated. At the basis of these changes in tissue
    size and shape are biophysical determinants, such as the change in cell number,
    cell size and shape, and anisotropic tissue growth. These processes are controlled
    by global tissue‐scale regulators, such as morphogen signaling gradients as well
    as mechanical forces. Current challenges in the field are to uncover how these
    tissue‐scale regulatory mechanisms are translated to the cellular and molecular
    level, and how regulation of distinct cellular processes gives rise to an overall
    defined size. Addressing these questions will help not only to achieve a better
    understanding of how size is controlled, but also of how tissue size is coordinated
    with the specification of pattern.

  text: 'The way in which interactions between mechanics and biochemistry lead to
    the emergence of complex cell and tissue organization is an old question that
    has recently attracted renewed interest from biologists, physicists, mathematicians
    and computer scientists. Rapid advances in optical physics, microscopy and computational
    image analysis have greatly enhanced our ability to observe and quantify spatiotemporal
    patterns of signalling, force generation, deformation, and flow in living cells
    and tissues. Powerful new tools for genetic, biophysical and optogenetic manipulation
    are allowing us to perturb the underlying machinery that generates these patterns
    in increasingly sophisticated ways. Rapid advances in theory and computing have
    made it possible to construct predictive models that describe how cell and tissue
    organization and dynamics emerge from the local coupling of biochemistry and mechanics.
    Together, these advances have opened up a wealth of new opportunities to explore
    how mechanochemical patterning shapes organismal development. In this roadmap,
    we present a series of forward-looking case studies on mechanochemical patterning
    in development, written by scientists working at the interface between the physical
    and biological sciences, and covering a wide range of spatial and temporal scales,
    organisms, and modes of development. Together, these contributions highlight the
    many ways in which the dynamic coupling of mechanics and biochemistry shapes biological
    dynamics: from mechanoenzymes that sense force to tune their activity and motor
    output, to collectives of cells in tissues that flow and redistribute biochemical
    signals during development.'

  text: Cell division, movement and differentiation contribute to pattern formation
    in developing tissues. This is the case in the vertebrate neural tube, in which
    neurons differentiate in a characteristic pattern from a highly dynamic proliferating
    pseudostratified epithelium. To investigate how progenitor proliferation and differentiation
    affect cell arrangement and growth of the neural tube, we used experimental measurements
    to develop a mechanical model of the apical surface of the neuroepithelium that
    incorporates the effect of interkinetic nuclear movement and spatially varying
    rates of neuronal differentiation. Simulations predict that tissue growth and
    the shape of lineage-related clones of cells differ with the rate of differentiation.
    Growth is isotropic in regions of high differentiation, but dorsoventrally biased
    in regions of low differentiation. This is consistent with experimental observations.
    The absence of directional signalling in the simulations indicates that global
    mechanical constraints are sufficient to explain the observed differences in anisotropy.
    This provides insight into how the tissue growth rate affects cell dynamics and
    growth anisotropy and opens up possibilities to study the coupling between mechanics,
    pattern formation and growth in the neural tube.

  text: The interface of physics and biology pro-vides a fruitful environment for
    generatingnew concepts and exciting ways forwardto understanding living matter.
    Examplesof successful studies include the estab-lishment and readout of morphogen
    gra-dients during development, signal pro-cessing in protein and genetic networks,the
    role of ﬂuctuations in determining thefates of cells and tissues, and collectiveeffects
    in proteins and in tissues. It is nothard to envision that signiﬁcant further
    ad-vances will translate to societal beneﬁtsby initiating the development of new
    de-vices and strategies for curing disease.However, research at the interface
    posesvarious challenges, in particular for youngscientists, and current institutions
    arerarely designed to facilitate such scientiﬁcprograms. In this Letter, we propose
    aninternational initiative that addressesthese challenges through the establish-ment
    of a worldwide network of platformsfor cross-disciplinary training and incuba-tors
    for starting new collaborations.

  text: 'Facial shape is the basis for facial recognition and categorization. Facial
    features reflect the underlying geometry of the skeletal structures. Here, we
    reveal that cartilaginous nasal capsule (corresponding to upper jaw and face)
    is shaped by signals generated by neural structures: brain and olfactory epithelium.
    Brain-derived Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) enables the induction of nasal septum and posterior
    nasal capsule, whereas the formation of a capsule roof is controlled by signals
    from the olfactory epithelium. Unexpectedly, the cartilage of the nasal capsule
    turned out to be important for shaping membranous facial bones during development.
    This suggests that conserved neurosensory structures could benefit from protection
    and have evolved signals inducing cranial cartilages encasing them. Experiments
    with mutant mice revealed that the genomic regulatory regions controlling production
    of SHH in the nervous system contribute to facial cartilage morphogenesis, which
    might be a mechanism responsible for the adaptive evolution of animal faces and
    snouts.'

  text: Developmental processes are inherently dynamic and understanding them requires
    quantitative measurements of gene and protein expression levels in space and time.
    While live imaging is a powerful approach for obtaining such data, it is still
    a challenge to apply it over long periods of time to large tissues, such as the
    embryonic spinal cord in mouse and chick. Nevertheless, dynamics of gene expression
    and signaling activity patterns in this organ can be studied by collecting tissue
    sections at different developmental stages. In combination with immunohistochemistry,
    this allows for measuring the levels of multiple developmental regulators in a
    quantitative manner with high spatiotemporal resolution. The mean protein expression
    levels over time, as well as embryo-to-embryo variability can be analyzed. A key
    aspect of the approach is the ability to compare protein levels across different
    samples. This requires a number of considerations in sample preparation, imaging
    and data analysis. Here we present a protocol for obtaining time course data of
    dorsoventral expression patterns from mouse and chick neural tube in the first
    3 days of neural tube development. The described workflow starts from embryo dissection
    and ends with a processed dataset. Software scripts for data analysis are included.
    The protocol is adaptable and instructions that allow the user to modify different
    steps are provided. Thus, the procedure can be altered for analysis of time-lapse
    images and applied to systems other than the neural tube.

  text: By applying methods and principles from the physical sciences to biological
    problems, D'Arcy Thompson's On Growth and Form demonstrated how mathematical reasoning
    reveals elegant, simple explanations for seemingly complex processes. This has
    had a profound influence on subsequent generations of developmental biologists.
    We discuss how this influence can be traced through twentieth century morphologists,
    embryologists and theoreticians to current research that explores the molecular
    and cellular mechanisms of tissue growth and patterning, including our own studies
    of the vertebrate neural tube.

  text: In November 2016, developmental biologists, synthetic biologists and engineers
    gathered in Paris for a meeting called ‘Engineering the embryo’. The participants
    shared an interest in exploring how synthetic systems can reveal new principles
    of embryonic development, and how the in vitro manipulation and modeling of development
    using stem cells can be used to integrate ideas and expertise from physics, developmental
    biology and tissue engineering. As we review here, the conference pinpointed some
    of the challenges arising at the intersection of these fields, along with great
    enthusiasm for finding new approaches and collaborations.

  text: Like many developing tissues, the vertebrate neural tube is patterned by antiparallel
    morphogen gradients. To understand how these inputs are interpreted, we measured
    morphogen signaling and target gene expression in mouse embryos and chick ex vivo
    assays. From these data, we derived and validated a characteristic decoding map
    that relates morphogen input to the positional identity of neural progenitors.
    Analysis of the observed responses indicates that the underlying interpretation
    strategy minimizes patterning errors in response to the joint input of noisy opposing
    gradients. We reverse-engineered a transcriptional network that provides a mechanistic
    basis for the observed cell fate decisions and accounts for the precision and
    dynamics of pattern formation. Together, our data link opposing gradient dynamics
    in a growing tissue to precise pattern formation.

  text: 'In the vertebrate neural tube, the morphogen Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) establishes
    a characteristic pattern of gene expression. Here we quantify the Shh gradient
    in the developing mouse neural tube and show that while the amplitude of the gradient
    increases over time, the activity of the pathway transcriptional effectors, Gli
    proteins, initially increases but later decreases. Computational analysis of the
    pathway suggests three mechanisms that could contribute to this adaptation: transcriptional
    upregulation of the inhibitory receptor Ptch1, transcriptional downregulation
    of Gli and the differential stability of active and inactive Gli isoforms. Consistent
    with this, Gli2 protein expression is downregulated during neural tube patterning
    and adaptation continues when the pathway is stimulated downstream of Ptch1. Moreover,
    the Shh-induced upregulation of Gli2 transcription prevents Gli activity levels
    from adapting in a different cell type, NIH3T3 fibroblasts, despite the upregulation
    of Ptch1. Multiple mechanisms therefore contribute to the intracellular dynamics
    of Shh signalling, resulting in different signalling dynamics in different cell
    types.'

  text: The development of a functional tissue requires coordination of the amplification
    of progenitors and their differentiation into specific cell types. The molecular
    basis for this coordination during myotome ontogeny is not well understood. Dermomytome
    progenitors that colonize the myotome first acquire myocyte identity and subsequently
    proliferate as Pax7-expressing progenitors before undergoing terminal differentiation.
    We show that the dynamics of sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling is crucial for this
    transition in both avian and mouse embryos. Initially, Shh ligand emanating from
    notochord/floor plate reaches the dermomyotome, where it both maintains the proliferation
    of dermomyotome cells and promotes myogenic differentiation of progenitors that
    colonized the myotome. Interfering with Shh signaling at this stage produces small
    myotomes and accumulation of Pax7-expressing progenitors. An in vivo reporter
    of Shh activity combined with mouse genetics revealed the existence of both activator
    and repressor Shh activities operating on distinct subsets of cells during the
    epaxial myotomal maturation. In contrast to observations in mice, in avians Shh
    promotes the differentiation of both epaxial and hypaxial myotome domains. Subsequently,
    myogenic progenitors become refractory to Shh; this is likely to occur at the
    level of, or upstream of, smoothened signaling. The end of responsiveness to Shh
    coincides with, and is thus likely to enable, the transition into the growth phase
    of the myotome.

  text: 'Cells at different positions in a developing tissue receive different concentrations
    of signaling molecules, called morphogens, and this influences their cell fate.
    Morphogen concentration gradients have been proposed to control patterning as
    well as growth in many developing tissues. Some outstanding questions about tissue
    patterning by morphogen gradients are the following: What are the mechanisms that
    regulate gradient formation and shape? Is the positional information encoded in
    the gradient sufficiently precise to determine the positions of target gene domain
    boundaries? What are the temporal dynamics of gradients and how do they relate
    to patterning and growth? These questions are inherently quantitative in nature
    and addressing them requires measuring morphogen concentrations in cells, levels
    of downstream signaling activity, and kinetics of morphogen transport. Here we
    first present methods for quantifying morphogen gradient shape in which the measurements
    can be calibrated to reflect actual morphogen concentrations. We then discuss
    using fluorescence recovery after photobleaching to study the kinetics of morphogen
    transport at the tissue level. Finally, we present particle tracking as a method
    to study morphogen intracellular trafficking.'

  text: Morphogen gradients regulate the patterning and growth of many tissues, hence
    a key question is how they are established and maintained during development.
    Theoretical descriptions have helped to explain how gradient shape is controlled
    by the rates of morphogen production, spreading and degradation. These effective
    rates have been measured using fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP)
    and photoactivation. To unravel which molecular events determine the effective
    rates, such tissue-level assays have been combined with genetic analysis, high-resolution
    assays, and models that take into account interactions with receptors, extracellular
    components and trafficking. Nevertheless, because of the natural and experimental
    data variability, and the underlying assumptions of transport models, it remains
    challenging to conclusively distinguish between cellular mechanisms.

  text: The spatial organization of cell fates during development involves the interpretation
    of morphogen gradients by cellular signaling cascades and transcriptional networks.
    Recent studies use biophysical models, genetics, and quantitative imaging to unravel
    how tissue-level morphogen behavior arises from subcellular events. Moreover,
    data from several systems show that morphogen gradients, downstream signaling,
    and the activity of cell-intrinsic transcriptional networks change dynamically
    during pattern formation. Studies from Drosophila and now also vertebrates suggest
    that transcriptional network dynamics are central to the generation of gene expression
    patterns. Together, this leads to the view that pattern formation is an emergent
    behavior that results from the coordination of events occurring across molecular,
    cellular, and tissue scales. The development of novel approaches to study this
    complex process remains a challenge.

  text: The emergence of differences in the arrangement of cells is the first step
    towards the establishment of many organs. Understanding this process is limited
    by the lack of systematic characterization of epithelial organisation. Here we
    apply network theory at the scale of individual cells to uncover patterns in cell-to-cell
    contacts that govern epithelial organisation. We provide an objective characterisation
    of epithelia using network representation, where cells are nodes and cell contacts
    are links. The features of individual cells, together with attributes of the cellular
    network, produce a defining signature that distinguishes epithelia from different
    organs, species, developmental stages and genetic conditions. The approach permits
    characterization, quantification and classification of normal and perturbed epithelia,
    and establishes a framework for understanding molecular mechanisms that underpin
    the architecture of complex tissues.

  text: Morphogens, such as Decapentaplegic (Dpp) in the fly imaginal discs, form
    graded concentration profiles that control patterning and growth of developing
    organs. In the imaginal discs, proliferative growth is homogeneous in space, posing
    the conundrum of how morphogen concentration gradients could control position-independent
    growth. To understand the mechanism of proliferation control by the Dpp gradient,
    we quantified Dpp concentration and signaling levels during wing disc growth.
    Both Dpp concentration and signaling gradients scale with tissue size during development.
    On average, cells divide when Dpp signaling levels have increased by 50%. Our
    observations are consistent with a growth control mechanism based on temporal
    changes of cellular morphogen signaling levels. For a scaling gradient, this mechanism
    generates position-independent growth rates.
