Teaching development is tough when students don’t have a lab class to try the experiments themselves. So today I had them do the next best thing: experimental play-doh embryology. By far the loudest chorus of “oh, THAT’S why!” I’ve ever heard when teaching an experiment! 🐸🔬👩🏽🔬💡
"De Formato Foetu" of Fabricius summarizing his investigations of the fetal development of many animals, including man, contained the first detailed description of the #placenta and opened the field of comparative #embryology.
