Summary: | The neocortex is unique to mammals and so, for evolutionary studies, researchers have compared eutherians and marsupials. A new paper in Development uncovers key differences in the timing of gene expression changes in the cortical development of the mouse and the similarly sized marsupial, the fat-tailed dunnart. We caught up with the authors from The University of Queensland, Australia, to find out more about their research and their future plans. |
