🚨 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!

Now out in @natneuro.nature.com

What happens to the brain’s body map when a body-part is removed?

Scanning patients before and up to 5 yrs after arm amputation, we discovered the brain’s body map is strikingly preserved despite amputation

Sharing our newest study led by the incredibly talented @federicamosti.bsky.social investigating new molecular mechanisms of human brain development. We discover a human-specific enhancer HAR1984 that influences chromatin looping to promote cortical size and folding! www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/...

To predict the behaviour of a primate, would you rather base your guess on a closely related species or one with a similar brain shape? We looked at brains & behaviours of 70 species, you’ll be surprised!

Our new preprint is out 🤩!
Proud to share our work uncovering the molecular diversity and developmental origins of cerebellar astrocytes. A deep dive into cerebellar gliogenesis using scRna-seq and lineage-tracing approaches. Big thanks @Valentina_Cerr @BuffoLab giacomo Turrini.

Excited to share David Hirst's PhD work!
🧬 When you only have a few datasets available for multi-omics integration, for instance because you work on rare diseases, one solution is Transfer Learning. Introducing #MOTL - now available in Genome Biology!

MOTL: enhancing multi-omics matrix factorization with transfer learning - Genome Biology
Joint matrix factorization is popular for extracting lower dimensional representations of multi-omics data but loses effectiveness with limited samples. Addressing this limitation, we introduce MOTL (...

Dear @jbmanent.bsky.social, our son has had 5 seizures. He's stopped breathing, his lips turning blue. We were terrified. We turned that fear into a book to help raise awareness — Ivan’s Seizure Helpers. It’s now a Kickstarter 💜 Please support and help amplify! kickstarter.com/projects/iva...
Ivan's Seizure Helpers: A Bilingual (ES/EN) Children's Book
Based on personal experience, this book introduces seizure awareness and basic first aid to elementary-aged children.
