Uncovering Unique Neuronal Origins in the Human Forebrain
Originally Published 1 year ago — by SciTechDaily
Researchers at UC San Diego have discovered unique inhibitory neurons in the human forebrain, challenging existing models of brain development that are based on studies of mice. The study provides insights into the cellular lineage of neurons in the human brain and may lead to improved models of brain function and disease. The findings have significant implications for understanding brain diseases such as epilepsy, schizophrenia, and autism, and could help generate better models of neurological disease.
