Description: Features Dr Malcolm Steinberg investigating how cells join together to form tissues and organs. Shows that embryonic tissues, which are disassociated into their component cells and placed randomly in a culture, will reassociate and reconstruct essentially the organ which was originally taken apart. Views an experiment which demonstrates the theory that the combination of known types of cells through selective adhesion re sults in a certain cell positioning pattern.
