Who am I? Optimal Tissue for Germline Genetic Testing Post-Stem Cell Transplantation

Matthias Mertens, Mona Sadlo, Jörn-Sven Kühl, Klaus Hans Metzeler, Louisa Zschenderlein, Jeanett Edelmann, Claudia Lehmann, Sarah Thull, Mert Karakaya, Clara Velmans, Theresa Tumewu, Matthias Böhme, Christina Klötzer, Anne Weigert, Vladan Vucinic, , Mareike Mertens

This study identifies optimal tissues for germline genetic testing post-stem cell transplantation, finding buccal swabs and nails have higher donor DNA than eyebrow hair.

Ngn2 induces diverse neuronal lineages from human pluripotency

Hsiu‐Chuan Lin, Zhisong He, Sebastian Ebert, Maria Schörnig, Małgorzata Santel, Anne Weigert, Wulf Hevers, Nael Nadif Kasri, Elena Taverna, J. Gray Camp, Barbara Treutlein

This study uses single-cell transcriptomics to show that Ngn2 overexpression in human iPSCs generates heterogeneous neurons, including peripheral nervous system-like populations, and that Ngn2 dosage affects neuron fate.

Single-cell genomic atlas of great ape cerebral organoids uncovers human-specific features of brain development

Sabina Kanton, Michael James Boyle, Zhisong He, Małgorzata Santel, Anne Weigert, Fátima Sanchís-Calleja, Patricia Guijarro, Leila Sidow, Jonas Simon Fleck, Dingding Han, Zhengzong Qian, Michael Heide, Wieland Β. Huttner, Philipp Khaitovich, Svante Pääbo, , J. Gray Camp

This study uses single-cell genomics to compare brain development in humans, chimpanzees, and macaques, identifying human-specific gene regulatory features.

Breaking the ladder: Evolution of the ventral nerve cord in Annelida

Conrad Helm, Patrick Beckers, Thomas Bartolomaeus, Stephan H. Drukewitz, Ioannis Kourtesis, Anne Weigert, Günter Purschke, Katrine Worsaae, Torsten H. Struck, Christoph Bleidorn

The paper reconstructs the evolution of the annelid ventral nerve cord using phylogenomic and morphological analyses, finding that a subepidermal ladder-like nerve cord is derived, not ancestral.
