wakefulness, the brain is geared fully toward processing information and behaving, while …

Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are a heterogeneous group of
disorders characterized by early-onset, often severe epileptic seizures and EEG …

The evolution of gene expression in mammalian organ development remains largely
uncharacterized. Here we report the transcriptomes of seven organs (cerebrum, cerebellum …

The transition from childhood to adolescence is marked by pronounced shifts in brain
structure and function that coincide with the development of physical, cognitive, and social …

Humans are a puzzling species. On the one hand, we struggle to survive on our own in the

In the mammalian cerebral cortex neurons are arranged in specific layers and form
connections both within the cortex and with other brain regions, thus forming a complex …

Adult cortical areas consist of specialized cell types and circuits that support unique higher-
order cognitive functions. How this regional diversity develops from an initially uniform …

Neuroanatomists have long speculated that expanded primate brains contain an increased
morphological diversity of inhibitory neurons (INs), and recent studies have identified …

INTRODUCTION Improved understanding of how the developing human nervous system
differs from that of closely related nonhuman primates is fundamental for teasing out human …
