How neural circuits develop in the human brain has remained almost impossible to study at
the neuronal level. Here, we investigate human cortical neuron development, plasticity, and …

The cerebral cortex is at the core of brain functions that are thought to be particularly
developed in the human species. Human cortex specificities stem from divergent features of …

Many genetic forms of congenital deafness affect the sound reception antenna of cochlear
sensory cells, the hair bundle. The resulting sensory deprivation jeopardizes auditory cortex (…

The enhanced cognitive abilities characterizing the human species result from specialized
features of neurons and circuits. Here, we report that the hominid-specific gene LRRC37B …

Human-specific (HS) genes are potential drivers of brain evolution, but their impact on human
neuron development and disease remains unclear. Here we studied HS genes SRGAP2B/…

The enhanced cognitive abilities characterizing the human species result from specialized
features of neurons and circuits, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely …

L'éminence ganglionnaire médiale (MGE) produit la grande majorité des interneurones
GABAergiques corticaux synthétisant la parvalbumine. Les neuroblastes issus de la MGE …

“Fugit irreparabile tempus,” wrote Virgil, a reminder that our lives are defined by the irreversible
flow of time. As soon as the egg is fertilized, embryonic cells follow a developmental …
