Phenomenal work! Work from @MZG_Lab has always amazed and inspired me (was the first lab that I applied to for postdoc, much before my urge for neurodevelopment took over!). The first two blastomeres contribute unequally to the human embryo: Cell
cell.com
Labeling and live imaging of human embryos reveal that the majority of the future body originates, mostly, from one of the 2-cell stage blastomeres. Descendants of the first 2-cell stage blastomere...

Despite its dominant, and enduring, impact, we have limited understanding of how maternal environment during pregnancy influences fetal brain development. @Binder_Lab delves into how glucocorticoids shape fetal brain development. Congratulations @Binder_Lab @silvianeurompi

How species specific genetic changes helped evolve one of the most complex mammalian organ - the brain? Putting together evolutionary pieces like Lego, great work by @takashi_namba @_LeiXing_ … congratulations to all the authors!!
New paper is out! We showed a functional cooperation of a human-specific mitochondrial protein ARHGAP11B and an ape-specific mitochondrial protein GLUD2 in human neural progenitors to expand their number https://t.co/65QGwl2AJL

🚨 The lab of @AsifaAkhtar1 uncovered in @nature a mechanism that safeguards the biallelic expression of haploinsufficient genes. The epigenetic regulator MSL2 acts as an “anti-monoallelic” factor that maintains biallelic gene dosage. This discovery not only reveals a
