Practice question

Scott Gilbert created several widely used developmental biology texts including Developmental Biology main textbook now 12th edition, Principles of Development, and co-authored Essential Developmental Biology, each with different depth for undergraduate and graduate audiences. Larsen's Human Embryology was authored by Gary Schoenwolf, Steven Bleyl, Philip Brauer, and Philippa Francis-West, focusing on clinical human embryology with anatomical orientation. It is not part of Gilbert authorship portfolio. Distinguishing authorship matters for referencing sources accurately, as Gilbert emphasizes molecular mechanisms across models while Larsen emphasizes human anatomy and congenital anomalies with clinical correlates.
