Still think brain regions don’t exist? That everything is everywhere? That cell types don’t matter and that everything is a dynamical phase portrait? Wrong. Interconnected brain modules exist at the level of fine grained transcriptomics. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Whole-cortex in situ sequencing reveals input-dependent area identity - Nature
BARseq interrogates the expression of 104 cell-type marker genes in 10.3 million cells over nine mouse forebrain hemispheres to reveal the role of peripheral inputs on cortical area development.

Exciting keynote talk at #TMM2025 by Christine Mummery on modeling arrhythmia using stem cell- derived cardioids!
Gupta Lab's image of stem cell- derived neuroepithelium is displayed at #TMM2025. didn't win though 😭 congratulations to all the winners, beautiful pics of wonderful world of stem cells.
great start of day 3 at #TMM2025 with a talk by Neurona therapeutic on major advances in epilepsy treatment with stem cell- derived interneurons! things are getting excited!
Great coverage by @thetransmissions.bsky.social of our latest preprint: adding new evidence (and a hint of controversy 🙂) to the E/I imbalance debate in autism 👇👇 www.thetransmitter.org/spectrum/ram...
Ramping up cortical activity in early life sparks autism-like behaviors in mice
The findings add fuel to the long-running debate over how an imbalance in excitatory and inhibitory signaling contributes to the autism.
