Catching up on work after travel 😬, procrastinating by posting #FluorescenceFriday. This is a beautiful example of exquisite lamination and gyration in human 🧠. Image is of gyrus rectus in orbitofrontal cortex, credit to RA Shreya Joshy on Imaging Development team @lieberinstitute.bsky.social 🔬🧪🤩

In addition, we got to hear about experimental approaches investigating evolutionary genomic regulation in other contexts - e.g. neuropil expansion and protracted maturation - that are specific to human development. Thanks Alex for a great talk and spending time with our teams today!

Alex and I met last year @corticodevelopment.bsky.social and chatted over shared fascination about how unique vulnerability of catecholamine neurons in human brain disorders might arise from the unique evolutionary pressures these neurons have encountered faced with massive expansion of primate 🧠
