Abstract
Although spatial patterning during embryonic development is well characterized, a corresponding framework for temporal patterning has not been established. In this issue, Zhu et al. (2006) identify the Chinmo protein as conferring temporal identity on the neural progeny of Drosophila neuroblasts, revealing appealing parallels with spatial patterning.
