Excited to share our new preprint where we find chromatin remodeler Arid1a mediates cortical circuit development through a selective role in subplate neurons!
Our new preprint! Subplate neurons orchestrate developmental assembly of cortical circuits. We find an unexpectedly selective role for ubiquitous chromatin remodeler Arid1a in subplate neuron identity & circuit wiring!🎉 1/

Thank you to the Deeda Blair research initiative and the FNIH for the support! Excited for the opportunity to pursue a new avenue of testing epigenetic editing based approaches to alter the neurodevelopmental trajectory of schizophrenia. @YaleCSC@WuTsaiYale
Excited to share our latest preprint! 🎉 In this study, we find that the histone H3 variant H3.3 establishes neuronal transcriptome, identity, and connectivity during a critical window in cerebral cortex development. 1/11

Please RT and tell your students about it 🥰 thx!
2020 Chemistry Laureates Emmanuelle Charpentier and Jennifer Doudna discovered one of gene technology’s sharpest tools: the CRISPR/Cas9 genetic scissors. Using these, researchers can change the DNA of animals, plants and microorganisms with extremely high precision.

Thrilled to share our new paper @NatureComms! 🎉
Chromatin regulates transcription, but it also mediates DNA repair. Here, we uncover molecularly distinct roles for chromatin remodeler Ino80 in gene regulation and genome maintenance in corticogenesis. 1/
