New review out in @NatRevNeurosci on mechanisms of prolonged human neuronal maturation! Led by postdoc @JenelleLWallace with @brainevodevo
Jenelle Wallace@JenelleLWallace27 Nov 2023
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.

Human neuronal maturation comes of age: cellular mechanisms and species differences

Nature Reviews Neuroscience - Human cortical neurons undergo a protracted period of postmitotic maturation compared with those of other species. Wallace and Pollen review the cell-intrinsic and...

Proud to have written this news and views @NatureNV with @brainevodevo about these two fascinating human brain evolution papers out today in @Nature from Nenad Sestan's lab! Shibata et al. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… nature.com/articles/s41586-0… nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Regulation of prefrontal patterning and connectivity by retinoic acid

Nature - Studies in mice, humans and macaques show that retinoic acid signalling has an important role in the development of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) in primates and may also underlie the...
