Ventricle position can be remodeled after heart looping!
In a model of heterotaxy we uncovered a new asymmetric morphogenesis process during which the heart reorients its chambers.
So grateful to all the authors for their expertise and input during this long (but fun) ride 💪

🚨 Excited to share the latest preprint form the lab ➡️https://tinyurl.com/32d3be9f

Here we tackle a long-standing chicken-or-egg 🐣🥚question in #autism and developmental neuroscience

➡️ Is excitation–inhibition (E:I) imbalance a "cause" or a "consequence" of #autism?

Check out what we found!
