The fruit fly's eye is an intricate pattern of many different specialized cells, and scientists use it as a workhorse to study what goes wrong in human cancer. In a new study of the fly's eye, Northwestern University researchers have gained insight into how developing cells normally switch to a restricted, or specialized, state and how that process might go wrong in cancer.
