Knowledge graphs can help make sense of the flood of cell-type data
These tools, widely used in the technology industry, could provide a foundation for the study of brain circuits.
Knowledge graphs can help make sense of the flood of cell-type data
Where do cell states end and cell types begin?
High-throughput transcriptomics offers powerful new methods for defining different types of brain cells. But we need to think more explicitly about how we use these data to distinguish a cell’s permanent identity from its transient states.

Building a brain: How does it generate its exquisite diversity of cells?
High-throughput technologies have revealed new insights into how the brain develops. But a truly comprehensive map of neurodevelopment requires further advances.

Hasty stem cells highlight potential limitation with cortical organoids
The models recapitulate many key developmental processes, but some radial glial cells in mouse organoids make neurons earlier than they should.
