ABOUT VICTORIA'S WORK
Victoria Foe is a scientist whose work focuses on cell and developmental biology and explores the earliest moments of embryonic life.

Foe is a descriptive embryologist with a gift for seeing patterns and with the desire to work out the finest details of a biological process.  Looking at the embryos of fruit flies, mosquitoes, frogs and fish, Foe made a seminal observation that, very early in development, different groups of cells in different regions of the embryo begin dividing at markedly different rates, thus providing insight into complex transformations that lead to cell specialization and the growth of distinct organs.  She has made major contributions to understanding gene and chromosome organization, and has spent many years working on an in-depth project describing embryonic development.  The first installment was published in 1989.

BIOGRAPHY
Foe was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, San Francisco (1976-1983).  She is Research Professor at the Center for Cell Dynamics at the University of Washington, in the biology department, and its Friday Harbor Laboratories.

Foe received a B.S. (1966) and a Ph.D. (1975) from the University of Texas, Austin.

关于维多利亚的工作
维多利亚-福伊是一位科学家，她的工作重点是细胞和发育生物学，并探索胚胎生命的最初时刻。

福伊是一位描述性的胚胎学家，他有看到模式的天赋，并渴望找出生物过程的最精细的细节。 在观察果蝇、蚊子、青蛙和鱼的胚胎时，福伊做出了一个开创性的观察，即在发育的早期，胚胎不同区域的不同细胞群开始以明显不同的速度分裂，从而使人们了解到导致细胞特化和不同器官生长的复杂转变。 她为了解基因和染色体组织做出了重大贡献，并花了多年时间从事描述胚胎发育的深入项目。 第一部分于1989年出版。

个人简历
福伊是加利福尼亚大学旧金山分校的博士后研究员（1976-1983）。 她是华盛顿大学生物系细胞动力学中心及其星期五港实验室的研究教授。

福伊在德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校获得学士学位（1966年）和博士学位（1975年）。
