Abstract
In developmental biology, as in all scientific fields, conceptual advances are tightly coupled to technological innovation. In this review, we trace t he evolution of techniques in experimental embryology, from classical ablat ion to the latest methods utilizing in vivo electroporation, with lens indu ction as a linking theme.
