Physiological relevance of cell division regulators in mammalian neural development

A cubic millimeter of the cerebral cortex in the adult human brain may contain a hundred thousand cells, interacting by billions of synapses, and operating with a precision scale of milliseconds. Such cognitive dexterity allows our brain to extract, process, code, store and interpret an overwhelming...
