summaryThe aims of our work are to elucidate the key mechanisms of neurogenesis in the developing and post-natal cerebral cortex. During corticogenesis, the remarkable array of different neuronal cell types is generated from a complex population of multipotent stem and progenitor cells following a precise spatial and temporal pattern before being assemble in maps and circuits. We are interested in understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which these different neuronal cell types are temporally and spatially regulated by the action of defined regionalized and coordinated differentiation programs.
