Investigation of the Molecular and Cellular Basis of Patterning, Morphogenesis, and Tubule Interconnections during Mammalian Kidney Development
The formation of a continuous tubular network in the mammalian urinary system requires the interconnection of two epithelial populations with distinct cellular origins. The proximal component of the renal network is the nephron--a complex tubule responsible for much of the physiological action of t...
