  "summary": "Synovial joint formation requires the coordinated differentiation of multiple cell types while balancing opposing migratory cues that recruit joint progenitors and exclude other populations. More specifically, a subset of limb bud mesenchyme is recruited into the interzone while neighboring chondrocytes and endothelial cells are excluded. Existing single-cell references sample this process…",
