JAK/STAT guarantees robust neural stem cell differentiation by shutting off biological noise

Abstract Organismal development is precisely regulated by a sequence of gene functions even in the presence of biological noise. However, it is difficult to evaluate the effect of noise in vivo, and the mechanisms by which noise is filtered during development are largely unknown. To identify the noi...
