Evolutionary Origins of Molecular Programs Underlying Brain Circuitry

This study reconstructs the evolutionary assembly of a conserved cortical axis across vertebrates using spatial transcriptomics and single-nucleus RNA-seq, revealing conserved molecular programs and convergent evolution in brain circuitry.

4D Single-Cell Spatial Transcriptomics Reveals Dynamic Morphogenetic Gradients and Regenerative Domains in Planarians

This study constructs a 4D spatiotemporal transcriptomic map of planarian regeneration using Stereo-seq, identifying dynamic gradients and an injury-induced regenerative zone.

Bicolor angelfish (Centropyge bicolor) provides the first chromosome-level genome of the Pomacanthidae family

This paper presents the first chromosome-level genome of the Bicolor Angelfish, providing insights into coral reef fish evolution and conservation.
