One of the major challenges of developmental neurobiology is to understand how the extraordinary diversity of cellular types that make up the nervous system is generated.

Elise Cau, Brice Ronsin, Laurianne Bessière and Patrick Blader of CBD, in a study published in Plos Biology, identified a new mechanism in which, after division, the two sister cells activate a signalling pathway at different times, thus generating greater cell diversity from the same progenitor.
