Implications of diffusion and time-varying morphogen gradients for the dynamic positioning and precision of bistable gene expression boundaries.

The earliest models for how morphogen gradients guide embryonic patterning failed to account for experimental observations of temporal refinement in gene expression domains. Following theoretical and experimental work in this area, dynamic positional information has emerged as a conceptual framework...
