  "summary": "A central question in developmental biology is how embryonic patterning remains robust when developmental tempo changes. In ectotherms, temperature strongly alters developmental speed and biochemical reaction rates, whereas diffusion is expected to change only weakly. How morphogen gradients required for patterning remain correctly scaled under these conditions is unclear. We addressed this…",
