Thrilled to share the story stemming from my PhD!
We used mESC neural differentiation, genome editing and bulk & single-cell approaches to uncover how ZIC2 controls early neural fate by playing a dual and sequential regulatory role as a promiscous pioneer and a selective lineage-specific activator.
