Astrocyte heterogeneity reveals region-specific astrogenesis in the white matter - Nature Neuroscience White matter (WM) astrocytes differ significantly from gray matter astrocytes, with WM astrocytes in the forebrain exhibiting unique proliferation capacity, which is absent in cerebellar WM, suggestin...

🚀 Think all white matter (WM) astrocytes are the same? Think again! 🌟 Our latest research reveals striking regional differences that challenge existing views on astrocyte diversity and function. 🧠

Delighted to have this out as a preprint! Thanks to all authors, especially @estherkli.bsky.social and @djabaudon.bsky.social for leading the work. If you are interested in how conserved genes played a part in evolving human brains, give it a read!

✨ We tend to think of species-specific differences as resulting from the presence of species-specific genes. In our latest work with @djabaudon.bsky.social, we show that building brains is not only about which genes you use, but also about when and where you do.
