The paper identifies brain-peripheral DNA methylation sites (BrESS) that consistently predict brain methylation across tissues, showing they are not linked to disease heritability.

The paper combines electrophysiology and single-cell sequencing to study postnatal development of human neocortical neurons, identifying BK channels as key drivers of physiological changes.

The paper isolates and characterizes two postnatal human neural stem cell subsets, showing their fate biases and decline in frequency over time.

This study shows that virus-specific CD8 T cells are generated and reactivated in the bone marrow after brain viral infections, leading to changes in the bone marrow niche.

This study shows that mTORC1 activation in astrocytes drives reactivity in cortical tubers and brain organoids, linking it to TSC pathology.

This study uses longitudinal diffusion MRI to examine microstructural changes in brain tracts of college football and volleyball players, finding divergent developmental patterns between the groups.

This study identifies transcriptomic signatures of human astrocytes across age, sex, and disease states, revealing changes in synaptic function, ionic homeostasis, and tumor microenvironment interactions.
