Sex differences in innate immune contribution to autoimmune and neuropsychiatric diseases, very cool! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

#HappyHalloween from the Quadrato Lab! I raised them with organoids but now they want brains!

Check out our new review in Neuron, proposing next generation strategies to "upgrade" the physiological relevance of human brain organoids. An effort led by Jean-Paul Urenda and Ashley Del Dosso, amazing PhD students in the lab! authors.elsevier.com/a/1bnzg3BtfGx3…

📢 Excited and proud to share our first preprint! We discovered a novel function for the autism-associated gene SYNGAP1 at the early stages of human cortical neurogenesis. Work co-lead by the very talented Marcella Birtele postdoc and Ashley Del Dosso PhD candidate in our lab🧵 1/8

Beautiful work by the Francis Lab supports the hypothesis that members of the complex controlling structural integrity of the neuronal synapse might also control scaffolding of cortical radial glia. More discussion in our recent preprint biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
