The chicken embryo is shown lying across the middle of the movie: tail end (left) and head end (right).

Second part of movie focusses on the embryo tail end where new somites are being generated. Note the time clock in the upper right of movie.

Special thanks to Prof Claudio Stern (Dept Cell & Developmental Biology, University College London) for contribution of this original research movie.
