This study identifies Bcl11b's role in regulating subcerebral projection neuron axon development through both cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous mechanisms involving Cdh13.

BEAM generates two genetically distinct cell populations for mosaic analysis by using sparse recombinase activation to label cells with green or red fluorescent protein.

The paper introduces a machine learning method to detect somatic L1 insertions in human brain tissue, revealing their widespread distribution in neurons and glia and potential role in neuropsychiatric diseases.

The paper identifies a microRNA cluster unique to placental mammals that promotes corticospinal neuron identity by repressing LMO4, a callosal gene, thereby contributing to neuronal subtype diversity in the mammalian brain.

The paper identifies age-related accumulation of somatic mutations in human neurons and links them to neurodegenerative diseases.
