🚀New paper out! Can somatosensory maps be reshaped before birth? We reveal a critical embryonic window where prenatal mystacial whiskers deprivation reorganizes facial maps, expanding upper lip representation, refining map resolution & enhancing function. nature.com/articles/s4146…

Are you interested in the development of the human brain? One postdoctoral position is opened with #WT funds in @RicoLab to investigate the development of inhibitory circuits in the human cerebral cortex.

Experience: Molecular Biology (scRNA seq, RNAseq).

Please RT!
