Editor’s summaryEarly mammalian embryos exhibit variability in gene expression, mechanical properties, and timing of cell divisions. Despite the inherent stochastic dynamics, the embryos achieve robust forms and functions. Fabrèges et al. explored how temporal variability and cell mechanics influence the robustness of embryonic development in mouse, rabbit, and monkey embryos.
