Enhancer AAV toolbox for accessing and perturbing striatal cell types and circuits

The paper presents an enhancer AAV toolbox for targeting and perturbing striatal cell types and circuits in mice, with validated specificity and cross-species applicability.

A suite of enhancer AAVs and transgenic mouse lines for genetic access to cortical cell types

The paper develops a toolkit of transgenic mouse lines and enhancer AAVs for selective targeting of cortical cell populations using transcriptomic and epigenomic data.

A novel epigenetic clock for rhesus macaques unveils an association between early life adversity and epigenetic age acceleration

This paper develops two epigenetic clocks for rhesus macaques and finds that early life adversity, specifically infant maltreatment, is associated with epigenetic age acceleration.

Enhancer viruses and a transgenic platform for combinatorial cell subclass-specific labeling

The paper develops enhancer viruses and a transgenic mouse line to enable combinatorial labeling of specific neuronal subclasses in the mouse cortex and human slices.

Molecular and Behavioral Effects of Infant Maltreatment across Generations in Rhesus Monkeys

This study shows that childhood maltreatment in rhesus monkeys leads to molecular and behavioral changes in offspring across generations without behavioral transmission.
