PhD defended! π
After years studying the developmental origins of pediatric brain tumors, Iβm incredibly grateful to my supervisor Dr. VΓctor Borrell
@borrell-lab.bsky.social
and to all the mentors, colleagues, friends and family who supported me along the way.
On to the next chapter!

Yes, but the question is on this new model and without changing the initial geometry, which you suggest. For example, maintaining same initial geometry, but changing density of radial anchors locallyβ¦

What/how much is necessary to modify one (any/all) of these folds? Local loss/gain of density of radial fiber density?

I am thrilled to share our latest story led by the incredibly talented Brooke DβArcy and Camila Musso. We discover a rich world of local gene expression in radial glia, essential neural and glial precursors, and develop a new method for sub-cellular mRNA manipulation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Cell-extrinsic controls over neocortical neuron fate and diversity
Cell-extrinsic cues are key for neocortical cell identity and diversity.
Ever wondered how robust cellular identity is to external perturbations? Here we disrupt cellular environmnent in vivo and in vitro, and find cell population specific sensitivities. Environment sculpts development yes, but not all cells are made of the same wood. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

This therapy builds on research from Carlos Belmonte, @neuroviana.bsky.social and colleagues, who showed how corneal cold receptors drive tear production and identified TRPM8 as a target. Once again showcasing the international nature of scientific progress.

I guess genes have something to do on how big brains are. Genes do determine and change brain folds, as shown by a number of different studies from multiple labs worldwide.
