The cognitive abilities of humans are distinctive among primates, but their molecular and
cellular substrates are poorly understood. We used comparative single-nucleus …

INTRODUCTION Improved understanding of how the developing human nervous system
differs from that of closely related nonhuman primates is fundamental for teasing out human …

The human brain directs complex behaviors, ranging from fine motor skills to abstract
intelligence, but the diversity of cell types that support these skills has not been fully …

While human cognitive abilities are clearly unique, underlying changes in brain organization
and function remain unresolved. Here we characterized the transcriptome of the cortical …

Variation in cytoarchitecture is the basis for the histological definition of cortical areas. We
used single cell transcriptomics and performed cellular characterization of the human cortex …

To better understand the molecular and cellular differences in brain organization between
human and nonhuman primates, we performed transcriptome sequencing of 16 regions of …

The mammalian cerebral cortex supports cognitive functions such as sensorimotor
integration, memory, and social behaviors. Normal brain function relies on a diverse set of …

The human cerebral cortex has tremendous cellular diversity. How different cell types are
organized in the human cortex and how cellular organization varies across species remain …

Enhanced cognitive function in humans is hypothesized to result from cortical expansion
and increased cellular diversity. However, the mechanisms that drive these phenotypic …

INTRODUCTION The cerebral cortex underlies our complex cognitive capabilities.
Variations in human cortical surface area and thickness are associated with neurological …
