Abstract

How lineage and the microenvironment influence stem cell homeostasis at a population level remains unresolved. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Dray et al. (2021) use in vivo imaging and statistical modeling to discover a key role for local progenitor cell descendants in constraining neural stem cell divisions.
