Gdf3 is required for robust Nodal signaling during germ layer formation and left-right patterning.

abstract：:Modern neuroscience research often requires the coordination of multiple processes such as stimulus generation, real-time experimental control, as well as behavioral and neural measurements. The technical demands required to simultaneously manage these processes with high temporal fidelity is a barrier that limits the...
