Neural cells in our central nervous system (CNS) have long been thought to be mere targets
of neuroinflammatory events in neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) …

Across studied vertebrates, the medial amygdala (MeA) is a central hub for relaying sensory
information with social and/or survival relevance to downstream nuclei such as the bed …

The mammalian cortex is comprised of cells classified into types according to shared
properties. Defining the contribution of each cell type to the processes guided by the cortex …

Astrocytes contribute to the development and regulation of the higher-level functions of the
brain, the critical targets of evolution. However, how astrocytes evolve in primates is …

RNA abundance is controlled by rates of synthesis and degradation. Although mis-
regulation of RNA turnover is linked to neurodevelopmental disorders, how it contributes to …

Natural selection has shaped the gene regulatory networks that orchestrate the
development of the neocortex, leading to diverse neocortical structure and function across …

Despite the crucial role of synaptic connections and neural activity in the development and
organization of cortical circuits, the mechanisms underlying the formation of functional …

The implications of the early phases of human telencephalic development, involving neural
stem cells (NSCs), in the etiology of cortical disorders remain elusive. Here, we explored the …

How specification mechanisms that generate neural diversity translate into specific neuronal
targeting, connectivity, and function in the adult brain is not understood. In the medulla …
