New preprint on bioRvix! We show how cortical sensory-modality identity is instructed by a combinatorial cell-adhesion and activity codes, using #snRNAseq #spatialtranscriptomics #functional imaging. Congrats to everyone on this work! @guillelbendito.bsky.social @neuroalc.bsky.social
Combinatorial Cell-Adhesion and Activity Codes Instruct Cortical Modality Identity
The emergence of functional sensory modalities requires precise cortical arealization and thalamocortical connectivity. While early morphogen gradients broadly initiate cortical patterning, how sensor...

Earlier today at AXON MEETING 2025 in Rotterdam, our PI @guillelbendito.bsky.social shared new insights into:
How spontaneous activity meets genetic programs in the development of sensory circuits 🧠
Thank you to all who joined the session and contributed to the discussion! @neuroalc.bsky.social
