Brains come in various sizes and shapes, yet how neuronal position constrains the type of circuits that they can form remains largely unknown. The spatial layout of anatomical structures with...

✨ Astrocyte diversity starts at the source! 🧬 We uncover how dual radial glia lineages generate distinct astrocyte subtypes in the neocortex — revealed by MERFISH, scRNA-seq & clonal tracing. 📍#GLIA2025 | Poster T10-010A 🧠 w/ @Alan_Zhou_95 in Marseille Come talk glia with us!

🧠 One month ago, we published our study in @NatureComms showing how mice generalize knowledge across vision and touch, thanks to an abstract representation of peripersonal space in their dorsal cortex. Missed it? Check it out 👇
Mice dorsal cortex hosts overlapping visual and tactile sensory maps, forming an abstract representation of peripersonal space that enables spontaneous generalization of spatial task rules. Co-led this study with @GtnMaelle in @elboustanilab! More details down here... 🧠👇

@BassiZaremba and @Kaessmannlab performed the first and most comprehensive atlas of cell types in the pallium of birds 🐣🐔🐤and other amniotes. When comparing them to mammals, we found a great diversification of neurons! https://t.co/0ay7NYFpVe
