Abstract
In 1923 it was discovered by Hilde Mangold and Hans Spemann that the blastoporal lip, the presumptive mesodermal anlage, induces in ventral ectoderm a second neural anlage. In normal development ventral ectoderm does not form any nervous tissue but epidermis. The so-called “organizer experiment” was confirmed by many other investigators and with other experimental techniques. It was a very important discovery which finally led to a better understanding of cell determination and differentiation, but it was also an untimely one. In the 1920’s many facts on the biochemistry and the subcellular organization of cells had not been discovered, which later proved to be relevant to the investigation of induction and differentiation and many experimental tools were not yet developed.
