In angiogenesis, tight control of endothelial tip cell selection and migration drives new blood vessel branching. Page et al. show that VEGF-signaling-mediated positive feedback shapes the timing, magnitude, and robustness of tip cell identity decisions. Moreover, they identify a key modulator of VEGF-mediated positive feedback, Tm4sf18, which temporally controls angiogenesis in vivo.
