Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Laura Medina-Cuadra"

  • - Laura Medina-Cuadra's research primarily focuses on the role of neural crest cells in human congenital defects, exploring how these multipotent embryonic stem cells contribute to various developmental processes.
  • - In her recent article published in "Current Topics in Developmental Biology," she discusses the emergence of Xenopus as an effective model organism for studying neural crest pathologies, emphasizing its relevance in understanding congenital malformations.
  • - The findings highlight that any disruption in the developmental processes of neural crest cells can lead to significant and severe congenital defects, underscoring the importance of this cell population in embryonic development.
