The human brain undergoes profound changes from early development through late adulthood, shaping cognition, behaviour and vulnerability to disease1,2. Understanding how these changes are organized within specific brain regions and cell types is essential for interpreting normal ageing and its relationship to psychiatr...

Neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases impose a considerable societal and public health burden. However, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying these highly complex conditions remains limited1,2. Here, to gain deeper insights into the aetiology of different brain diseases, we used specimens f...

Neurogenesis, a critical process implicated in diverse brain disorders, is greatly diminished in the adult human brain, complicating direct investigations into its mechanistic role in disease. In the olfactory epithelium (OE), olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) maintain homeostasis via continual neurogenesis throughout l...

Dysfunctional microRNAs and GABAergic interneurons are features of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The role of neuronal microRNA155 (miR155), elevated in both AD and Down syndrome (DS), remains unknown.
