A new hypothesis on the emergence of multicellularity from former #ListerFellow @zernickagoetz.bsky.social and @qichen-lab.bsky.social. "Multicellularity may have begun not when cells stuck together — but when a single cell became unequal inside itself." How might this model affect your own studies?
