| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Quantifying global tissue deformation patterns is essential for understanding how organ-specific morphology is generated during development and regeneration. However, due to imaging difficulties and complex morphology, little is known about deformation dynamics for most vertebrate organs such as the brain and heart. To better understand these dynamics, we propose a method to precisely reconstruct global deformation patterns for 3D morphogenesis of curved epithelial sheets using positional data from labeled cells representing only 1-10% of the entire tissue with limited resolution. Combining differential-geometrical and Bayesian frameworks, the method is applicable to any morphology described with arbitrary coordinates, and ensures the feasibility of analyzing many organs. Application to data from chick forebrain morphogenesis demonstrates that our method provides not only a quantitative description of tissue deformation dynamics but also predictions of morphogenetic mechanisms.
