New review out in @NatRevNeurosci on mechanisms of prolonged human neuronal maturation! Led by postdoc @JenelleLWallace with @brainevodevo
I'm thrilled to announce that the review I wrote with @brainevodevo is now online @NatRevNeurosci: nature.com/articles/s41583-0… We cover mechanisms of prolonged human neuronal maturation, integrating lessons from model organisms with studies on species differences.
Exciting day for the lab - new paper out in @Nature from first author Matthew Schmitz @mtvector1 with @LabNowakowski @yimmieg at @UCSF and others. Check out Matthew's thread below!
Exciting Inhibitory Neurons!
Our paper from @Lab_Pollen @brainevodevo @yimmieg @LabNowakowski @UCSF is out today in @Nature! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
Also a less technical blog about the findings: medium.com/@matthew.schmitz/…
If you have questions, I'm happy to GABAbout it!
