Excited to present our new preprint led by @claudianguyen95 uncovering how thalamic input shapes human cortical development! We discover that thalamic axons promote the generation of upper layer cortical neurons through NRXN1-mediated contacts with outer radial glia. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

It’s out! The first paper from my postdoc – and first from the @bhadurilab.bsky.social – is now live @natneuro.nature.com . 🧠✨

Using a new meta-atlas generation strategy, we identified functional gene networks that more fully explain how cell types are formed in the human cortex. (1/13)

Delighted to share our most recent preprint led by the incredible @MilJessenya and @Jalbsoto! In this study, we generated a metabolomic atlas of human cortical development and discovered that the pentose phosphate pathway regulates radial glia cell fate. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Metabolic Atlas of Early Human Cortex Identifies Regulators of Cell Fate Transitions
Characterization of cell type emergence during human cortical development, which enables unique human cognition, has focused primarily on anatomical and transcriptional characterizations. Metabolic pr...
