The bending of cell sheets - from folding to rolling

Ray Keller, David Shook BMC Biology 2011, 9:90 (29 December 2011)

Keller and Shook explore how cell shape changes, junctional interactions and epithelial morphogenetic processes drive early development, including data from a recent analysis by Hoehn and Hallmann of a relatively unexplored inversion process in the multicellular alga Volvox globator.
