Congratulations to Dr. Soumya Iyengar and team at BRIC-NBRC on their latest publication in Communications Biology.
The study reveals how somatostatin-positive (SOM+) interneurons in the human auditory cortex develop from the prenatal stage to adulthood, uncovering layer-specific maturation patterns that provide new insights into cortical plasticity.

Ronald Reagan, 1986:
“The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’”
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, today:
“It’s a good quote. But I disagree.”
“I think nine more terrifying words are actually: ‘I worked all day and can’t feed my family.’”
Today, Mamdani opened the second city-run grocery store in New York City.
