Researchers at UW Medicine have developed a 'DNA Typewriter' technique that records the developmental history of cells in an early mouse embryo. The tool inscribes genetic changes into cells over time, allowing scientists to trace lineage relationships as the embryo develops. The work, covered by UW Medicine's newsroom and distributed via EurekAlert, offers a new way to study how a single cell gives rise to all tissues in a mammal.
