The mammalian cerebral cortex has an unparalleled diversity of cell types, which are generated during development through a series of temporally orchestrated events that are …
Gene networks have yielded numerous neurobiological insights, yet an integrated view across brain regions is lacking. We leverage RNA sequencing in 864 samples representing …
INTRODUCTION The cerebral cortex is responsible for higher-order functions in the nervous system and has undergone substantial expansion in size in primates. The development of …
During mammalian development, differences in chromatin state coincide with cellular differentiation and reflect changes in the gene regulatory landscape. In the developing brain …
Genetic perturbations of cortical development can lead to neurodevelopmental disease, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD). To identify genomic regions crucial to …
Neuronal activity-induced gene expression modulates the function and plasticity of the nervous system. It is unknown whether and to what extent neuronal activity may trigger …
Activity-driven transcription plays an important role in many brain processes, including those underlying memory and epilepsy. Here we combine genetic tagging of nuclei and ribosomes …
