vox populi, vox rei
OK, the full review was found too much aggressive toward the author and the referees and the editor. Concerning the staff of Organogenesis I must say that they done the worst job, I’m aware of, while reviewing and accepting this paper.
I hope that no biologist was involved in the review process and [...]

That’s weird, he do know that his paper EPMAG is just a set of hypotheses and if he learned anything about chick development since he wrote it he should know that there are a lot of errors in it, and he should spend some time preparing a corrigendum for EPMAG, Organogenesis.
We had kind of [...]

In “a must read” I pointed to a collective work by three french science bloggers discussing about the freedom of expression of french scientists in the Net. The starting point was the shutdown of Vincent Fleury’s website previously harbored by The University of Rennes 1 server, under the editorial responsibility of the UMR 6626 head [...]

I do predicted that the quality of this blog will fall vertiginously, just after the decision to let VF comment freely.Seems that you don’t need an exact mathematical model to do predictions that are verified, factually, in a relatively short time. All you need, is to know your man

This one is quite short but certainly the most important points. Fleury presents:
We assume that the blastodisc is a composite structure, namely a “sandwich”: Extra-Cellular Matrix/ cellular layers/Extra-Cellular Matrix. (p8, c1)
I suppose that here what is described is not the blastodisk but the epiblast. But this is not clear as there are several cellular layers. [...]

Following Fleury’s appreciation i’m a bad bad biologist, the worst he ever met, and probably vortex-blind, unable to see vortices where there are vortices.
In response to my request to point exactly at L2/R2 in his paper, he pointed to fig 6 of EPMAG supposedly depicting the four vortices. (vertically repositioned fig6 at [...]

One of the assumptions made in the paper, is that tensile stress is accumulated at the level of the extra-cellular matrix due to cells’ movements.
There is no evidence about that. To avoid any comments starting by “it is well known…”, below the fold the schematic representation of filopodia driven cell movements that don’t induce permanent [...]
