Entwicklungsmechanik, or developmental mechanics, is a concept founded in 1875 by Wilhelm His Sr. (1831-1904) and in 1882 by Wilhelm Roux (1850-1924)^[1]. It was further investigated by Hans Driesch (1867-1941) and Hans Spemann (1869-1941). Factors and mechanisms of development are today investigated as part of Developmental biology.

Early researchers in Entwicklungsmechanik tried to prove the epigenetic character of fetal development by influencing the order of normal development stages through mechanical interventions in Blastomeres. This was intended to probe the validity of Preformationism, and ended up establishing an experimental approach to Embryology. Among others, Kristine Bonnevie (1872-1948) and Richard Goldschmidt (1878-1958) later connected the field to Genetics^[2] ^[3] ^[4].
