Description
Raphael Blain and co-authors build a three-dimensional atlas of the developing human head, in a 2023 paper. Head growth has long drawn researchers, since the head is the gateway for the senses and has a tangled structure. Yet early human head growth is far less known than that of other vertebrates.
Using whole-mount staining and advanced 3D imaging, the team mapped many tissues across development. Muscles, blood vessels, cartilage, peripheral nerves, and glands are all charted in detail. The data sets are open through a web interface for other researchers. New details emerge on how glands branch and on how nerves, vessels, and muscles grow together. The authors say the atlas can help explain face and skull defects and nerve disorders, and can guide better diagnosis and treatment in those fields.
