Control of organ size: development, regeneration, and the role of theory in biology
How organs grow to be the right size for the animal is one of the central mysteries of biology. In a paper in BMC Biology, Khammash et al. propose a mechanism for escaping from the deficiencies of feedback control of growth as a mechanism. See research article: http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/s12915-015-0...
