In this review, the fundamental basis of machine learning (ML) and data mining (DM) are
summarized together with the techniques for distilling knowledge from state-of-the-art omics …

During evolution, new characters are designed by modifying pre-existing structures already
present in ancient organisms. In this perspective, the Central Nervous System (CNS) of …

Throughout embryonic development, the shaping of the functional and morphological
characteristics of embryos is orchestrated by an intricate interaction between transcription …

The emergence of new structures can often be linked to the evolution of novel cell types that
follows the rewiring of developmental gene regulatory subnetworks. Vertebrates are …

Sight depends on the tight cooperation between photoreceptors and pigmented cells, which
derive from common progenitors through the bifurcation of a single gene regulatory network …

Ascidian larvae undergo tail elongation and notochord lumenogenesis, making them an
ideal model for investigating tissue morphogenesis in embryogenesis. The cellular and …

Gene transcription is governed by a complex regulatory system involving changes in
chromatin structure, the action of transcription factors, and the activation of cis-regulatory …

Genetic studies in human and mice have established a dual role for Vsx genes in retina
development: an early function in progenitors' specification, and a later requirement for …

Background/Objectives: Chromatin accessibility is closely associated with transcriptional
regulation during maize (Zea mays) leaf development. However, its precise role in …

Neurons are a highly specialized cell type only found in metazoans. They can be scattered
throughout the body or grouped together, forming ganglia or nerve cords. During …
