Thalamic NRXN1-mediated input to human cortical progenitors drives excitatory neurogenesis.

The human cerebral cortex develops through coordinated signals from within the cortex and from other brain regions, including the thalamus.

The human cerebral cortex develops through coordinated signals from within the cortex and from other brain regions, including the thalamus. However, how thalamic neuronal projections influence early human cortical development remains less well-understood. In this study, we fused…
