Abstract
For this Special Issue of the International Journal of Developmental Biology on Hox genes, the guest editors met Jacqueline Deschamps for an interview about her research career dedicated to understanding how Hox gene expression is initiated, maintained and functionally utilized in the mouse embryo. We describe here her journey through some of the main discoveries which led to our current knowledege about how Hox genes contribute to shaping the animal body plan. This journey was a human adventure also, of more than 30 years, in the light of which Jacqueline Deschamps delivers here messages to the younger generations of scientists.
