Description
This book brings together scientists working at the interface between the cell cycle, cell growth and development in a variety of model systems and research paradigms. The focus is on understanding how such diverse developmental inputs can modulate cell cycle regulation and, reciprocally, how a common way of regulating cell cycle progression can participate in different developmental strategies.
Reviews / Votes
"These thirteen articles, and the full discussion that follows each, derive from papers given by specialists... at an April 2000 symposium in London." (SciTech Book News, Vol. 25, No. 4, December 2001)More details
