Movement is not an afterthought in development — it is built into the body from the start. This episode explores how somites, limb buds, cartilage, bone, and muscle form a coordinated system designed for structure and motion.
Langman explains segmentation and patterning, IB Singh offers clarity on limb rotations and skeletal timelines, and Moore highlights clinically relevant conditions such as limb deficiencies and skeletal dysplasias. The focus is on understanding how repetition and regional identity shape the musculoskeletal system.
By reframing limbs as extensions of a core developmental…
