Dynamic gene expression in the human cerebral cortex distinguishes children from adults.

Dynamic gene expression in the human cerebral cortex distinguishes children from adults.

In comparison with other primate species, humans have an extended juvenile period during which the brain is more plastic. In the current study we sought to examine gene expression in the cerebral cortex during development in the context of this adaptive plasticity. We introduce an approach designed...
