8/8 📍En at pre-open sites→ needs a chromatin opening partner. 📍Gsb reshapes chromatin, doesn't recruit Hb→needs a recruitment partner. We propose a NB-specific STF code where: 👉🏾STF1️⃣Primes chromatin 👉🏾STF2️⃣Recruits TTF 👉🏾STF+TTF activate TS genes 👉🏾TS genes specify neurons!

Super stoked to share our latest work! 🚨 We asked a fundamental question in developmental biology: How do neural stem cells combine “Space” + “Time” to build a complex brain? 🧠 Preprint 🔽 biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵👇🏾
