PROJECT SUMMARY The human brain has an expanded cortex compared to its closest relatives, and this outer layer of the brain provides humans with complex functions including integration of sensory inputs, judgement, and conscious decision making. Each of these areas of the cortex contains unique cell types, density of cells across layers, transcriptional identities, and connectivity patterns that emerge during developmental timepoints. Importantly, virtually all neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders develop with cortical area specific phenotypes, and often with specific laminar manifestations as well. The vulnerabilities to these disorders are established during these…
