    • Daam1a mediates asymmetric habenular morphogenesis by regulating dendritic and axonal outgrowth 
      Colombo, Alicia; Palma, Karina; Armijo, Lorena; Mione, Marina; Signore, Iskra A.; Morales, Camila; Guerrero, Néstor; Meynard, Margarita M.; Pérez, Ramón; Suazo, José; Marcelain Cubillos, Katherine; Briones, Luis; Härtel, Steffen; Wilson, Stephen W.; Concha Nordemann, Miguel (The Company of Biologists, 2013)
      Although progress has been made in resolving the genetic pathways that specify neuronal asymmetries in the brain, little is known about genes that mediate the development of structural asymmetries between neurons on left ...
    • Directional asymmetry in the volume of the human habenula 
      Ahumada Galleguillos, Patricio; Lemus, Carmen G.; Díaz, Eugenia; Osorio-Reich, María; Härtel, Steffen; Concha Nordemann, Miguel (Springer Verlag, 2017)
      © 2016, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Brain asymmetry is a conserved feature in vertebrates. The dorsal diencephalic habenular complex shows conspicuous structural and functional asymmetries in a wide range of species, ...
    • Nodal signalling and asymmetry of the nervous system 
      Signore Ahumada, Iskra; Palma González, Karina; Concha Nordemann, Miguel (Royal Society, 2016)
      The role of Nodal signalling in nervous system asymmetry is still poorly understood. Here, we review and discuss how asymmetric Nodal signalling controls the ontogeny of nervous system asymmetry using a comparative ...
    • The asymmetry and the optimization degree of the airway of Rattus norvegicus and Oryctolagus cuniculus La ... 
      Canals Lambarri, Mauricio; Atala, Cristian; Olivares, Ricardo; Novoa, F. Fernando; Rosenmann, Mario (2002)
      From a physical perspective, the air way has been proposed as a model of optimal design. Its design has been associated with a optimal gases flow to the alveoli, a minimum entropy production and minimal costs of mass and ...
    • The dorsal diencephalic conduction system of zebrafish as a model of vertebrate brain lateralisation 
      Concha, Miguel L. (2004)
      Lateralisation is an attractive and intriguing feature of the vertebrate CNS studied for decades in the different disciplines of the neurosciences. Due to the complexity of the phenomena and intrinsic limitations of the ...
