Studying the shape of tissues and organs is critical to understanding how they are formed. Embryonic development happens in three dimensions, but many studies are limited by the use of two-dimensional approaches and images to describe three-dimensional processes. To overcome this challenge, researchers at EMBL Barcelona have created LimbLab—an open-source pipeline made for three-dimensional visualization and analysis of growing limb buds.
