A cellular atlas developed by MIT researchers details the dynamic diversity of astrocytes and provides a framework for exploring how these ā­ļøshaped cells contribute to brain development, function & disease. mcgovern.mit.edu/2025/11/20/ā€¦ Stunning astrocyte image courtesy of @meschro

Astrocyte diversity across space and time - MIT McGovern Institute

When it comes to brain function, neurons get a lot of the glory. But healthy brains depend on the cooperation of many kinds of cells. The most abundant of the brainā€™s non-neuronal cells are astrocy...

Iā€™m so excited to share my first-author PhD paper, out today in @NeuroCellPress as a NeuroResource! A huge thanks to all of my co-authors, and of course to my wonderful mentors Guoping Feng, @fennamk, and @eboyden3. cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S08ā€¦

A transcriptomic atlas of astrocyte heterogeneity across space and time in mouse and marmoset

In this NeuroResource, Schroeder et al. present a transcriptomic atlas across brain regions and developmental time points in mouse and marmoset. Detailed analysis focused on astrocytes revealed that...

Very excited to share our pre-print and my thesis work on the postnatal development of astrocyte regional heterogeneity, which includes an integrated dataset of >1.4 million single nuclei transcriptomes in mouse and marmoset brains (now available online)! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/ā€¦

Astrocyte regional specialization is shaped by postnatal development

Astrocytes are an abundant class of glial cells with critical roles in neural circuit assembly and function. Though many studies have uncovered significant molecular distinctions between astrocytes...
