Abstract
Changes in shape of individual cells need to be coordinated to generat e the movements of cell groups and sheets that are so important in mor phogenesis. Recent results have shown that, during Drosophila gastrula tion, multiple signalling pathways act to orchestrate the complex cell rearrangements. (C) Current Biology Ltd ISSN 0960-9822.
