DNA Typewriter records cells' history in early mouse embryo

Original: DNA Typewriter records cells’ history in early mouse embryo

Researchers at UW Medicine have developed a tool called the DNA Typewriter that records the developmental history of individual cells in an early mouse embryo. The system writes DNA changes into cells as they divide, letting scientists trace each cell's lineage and better understand how a single embryo builds all its tissues.

Why now: The technique offers a new way to map cell lineages in development, a major advance for developmental biology and regenerative medicine.
