Abstract excerpt
Abnormalities in thalamocortical crosstalk can lead to neuropsychiatric disorders. Variants in CACNA1G, which encodes the α1G subunit of the thalamus-enriched T-type calcium channel, are associated with absence seizures, intellectual disability, and schizophrenia, but the cellular and circuit consequences of these genetic variants in humans remain unknown. Here, we developed a human assembloid model of the...
