Abstract: How does an embryo decide where to form its head? This decision was always thought to be made by a specialized region of the embryo called the organizer. But a study ofCriptomutant mice that lack an organizer, yet can still develop an antero-posterior axis, indicates that the organizer may not determine where the head forms — in mammals at least.
