Abstract excerpt
Neurotransmitter choice is a crucial step in neural development. In the cerebral cortex, pyramidal neurons use the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate, whereas non-pyramidal cells use the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA. We are interested in how these two neuronal types are generated. We label...
