Developmental biology: Order in the lung
David Warburton1
Abstract
Given the lung's thousands of branching airways, its development might be expected to be a highly complex process. Yet a surprisingly simple picture now emerges of when, where and in what order these branches form.
Elaborate branching is everywhere in nature. From riverbeds to oilfields, from trees to blood vessels, branching connects the large to the small.
