Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Celia Garcia-Cortes"
- Celia Garcia-Cortes' research primarily focuses on the role of the Hox gene in regulating the shape of appendages in organisms, specifically investigating how gene expression impacts extracellular matrix dynamics.
- In her 2018 article published in the journal Development, she explores the contrasting shapes of wings and halteres in insects, highlighting the significance of these differences for normal flight functionality.
- The findings indicate that while the Hox gene is crucial for determining the shape of these appendages, the exact mechanisms by which it influences their structural characteristics remain to be fully understood.
