Cell Cycle Arrest of a "Zippering" Epithelial Cell Cluster Shapes the Face and is Disrupted in Craniofacial Disorders

The paper identifies a novel epithelial population, Zippering Lambda, whose cell cycle arrest is critical for facial prominence fusion and is disrupted in orofacial clefting.

Charting the single cell transcriptional landscape governing visual imprinting.

The paper identifies transcriptional changes in the avian brain during visual imprinting using single-nucleus RNA sequencing, revealing cell clusters and lncRNAs linked to memory formation.

Multi-omics identification of extracellular components of the fetal monkey and human neocortex.

The paper identifies extracellular components in the developing fetal neocortex of humans and non-human primates using multi-omics approaches.

Sex differences in early human fetal brain development

This study analyzes transcriptomic differences between 46,XY and 46,XX human fetal brain cortex samples to understand sex chromosome and hormone effects during early development.

A neuroepithelial wave of BMP signalling drives anteroposterior specification of the tuberal hypothalamus

This study identifies a BMP signaling wave that drives anteroposterior specification of the tuberal hypothalamus in chicken embryos.
