New technique allows scientists to study gene expression in billions of 🧠 cells at once - rather than in one at a time. Kevin Kelley Nature Neuroscience ucsf.edu/news/2018/09/4…

So proud of my Aunt Joanne Chory! Her plant initiative funded by The Audacious Project is a testament to the importance of basic research. Harnessing decades of work on fundamental plant biology to create a super CO2 sequestering crop to mitigate climate change. See 23:10 in video

Delighted to share the latest paper in Cell Cell Press today— a comprehensive overview of human brain organogenesis in vivo, ex vivo & in vitro, including work using #assembloids, #organoids & disease models. Effort led by the amazing Kevin Kelley! authors.elsevier.com/a/1e3j6L7PXe-z0

Super excited to share our recent study out in Nature! This was a huge team effort with key contribution from Felicity Gore, Kevin Kelley, Karl Deisseroth, Huguenard Lab and Sergiu P. Pasca nature.com/articles/s4158…

Made a little video summarizing our recent work on transplanted human brain organoids with @omerevah, Felicity Gore, Sergiu P. Pasca, and collaborators. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Thank you! Kevin Kelley deserves credit for this 👇

How do we go about generating neural cell types in vitro from human pluripotent stem cells? Generally, we leverage relevant morphogen pathways and iteratively modulate them by trial and error to generate a cell population of interest. This is tedious and we yet have to learn

Looking forward to sharing our work!

This week in Nature Protocols we are sharing a detailed method for transplanting human stem cell–derived neural organoids into the somatosensory cortex of newborn rats as well as assays to functionally probe host circuit integration of the graft and test behavor. This is the
