It seems to me that in Cell Biology / Development / Genetics the "candidate gene approach" has become pretty much standard. Can anyone direct me to a paper (review, commentary, theory), discussing the basis, and the pros and cons of this approach? Asking for a friend...

It can be a bit disappointing when the mutant is just like the wild-type, but one can look at the bright side, it's just as beautiful as the wild-type. #DevBio #DevelopmentalBiology #CellBiology #CellBio #AsymmetricCellDivision #Celegans #Embryo

How morphogen gradients yield precise patterning is an important question in #DevelopmentalBiology. New study investigates the impact of cell size in this context.

I've been #teaching an undergraduate lab course using #Celegans' early #embryos. It works pretty well, even a messy teacher like me can pull it off. It allows for students to experiment with both #DevelopmentalBiology #DevBio, #CellBiology #CellBio and #Genetics. For anyone interested on setting up a similar course here goes a short thread. The course is three 4h sessions in the span of a week. As material goes it requires dissecting scopes and basic light microscopes for all students 1/n

Streetlight effect (a.k.a. drunkard search) it's a funny kind of #bias. You look for things where it's easy, not where they are. I wonder if it happens in #science, I'm kidding - of course it does!
For instance the 'candidate approach' - the main one these days in #CellBiology, #DevelopmentalBiology #Cancer #Biology, #Genetics, etc... - is a drunkard search. In tandem with confirmation bias, is a big factor in lack of #reproducibility. We should just ditch it.

Something I didn't about in developmental biology class - trophic memory in deer antlers.
Dr Michael Levin discusses the topic in an interview:

#introduction. I am a plant developmental geneticist. The lab addresses a fundamental biological question: how does morphogenesis translate genotype into form? To this end we study signaling at the plasma membrane - cell wall interface and we investigate how mechanical forces influence tissue shape using 3D digital ovules.
