This paper provides a protocol for using Seahorse assays to measure bioenergetics in patient-derived pediatric brain tumor neurospheres in 3D models.

The paper uses somatic mutations to analyze lineage divergence in human cortical regions, finding late divergence of neuronal cell types and regional inhomogeneities in progenitor proliferation.

The paper shows that direct photic effects and circadian-driven effects equally shape the sleep-wake cycle in mice, with melanopsin mediating most direct light effects.
