Stem Cell Potency Hierarchy Explorer

Watch a totipotent cell differentiate step by step down the potency hierarchy — pluripotent, multipotent, unipotent — and see each choice permanently close off sibling branches while a live counter tracks how many final cell types remain reachable.

A 3D branching tree shows a single cell's journey from totipotent to a fully specialized cell type. At every node, choose one differentiation path forward — the moment you choose, every sibling branch turns permanently gray and inaccessible, and the live counter shows exactly how many final destinations remain reachable from where the cell now sits. There is no way back up the tree, only further narrowing down whichever path was chosen.

⚙ Under the hood

Guide a totipotent cell down a branching 3D hierarchy through pluripotent, multipotent and unipotent stages — each differentiation choice permanently closes off every sibling branch while a live counter tracks exactly how many final cell types remain reachable.
