New preprint from my lab! Led by superstar PhD student @SamBarnada in collaboration with @LabEHerrera and many others including @BrugmannLab, Kevin Peterson, Steve McMahon. We investigated the role of ARID1A (BAF) in neural crest cell specification (1/n) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…






New preprint from my lab is out! We used human and chimp iPSCs, along with functional genomics, to study the evolution of hippocampal neurogenesis, focusing on a specific progenitor population seemingly involved with human-specific increase in hippocampal volume 1/n



Great to see this finally published on @PLOSGenetics journals.plos.org/plosgenetics/a… My amazing student @SamBarnada led the effort, along with co-first author Andrew Isopi, but it was really a team effort! And kudos to @ReviewCommons for a very smooth revisions process.
