Another week, another Houart lab image🔬 This week, it's a 3D image of a multiplex, in-situ of a chick forebrain by @danafd.bsky.social who studies early forebrain development in vertebrates & uses HCR to show the expression patterns of gene products instrumental in pallial/subpallial specification.

This week's image is by @joseriveraz.bsky.social who's tracing the lineage of progenitors in the human developing cortex. Here, José shows the building blocks of the developing cortex at 10pcw with SOX2 (apical progenitors), CTIP2 & TBR1(neuronal markers), NESTIN (radial glial fibers), and DAPI.

It has been an absolute pleasure for our lab to attend #ECCN2025 for the first time this year. We had meaningful discussions and learned a lot from a vibrant community tackling tough questions on brain evolution and development! Super excited for what lies ahead!
