March in preprints
Posted by the Node, on 1 April 2019
Welcome to our monthly trawl for developmental biology (and related) preprints.
This month we found three hydra preprints, lots of developmental mechanics, a typically hearty serving of single cell transcriptomic analyses and a survey of the life of PIs.
The preprints were hosted on bioRxiv, PeerJ, and arXiv. Let us know if we missed anything, and use these links to get to the section you want:
