A study of gene expression in the living human brain

Lora E. Liharska, You Jeong Park, Kimia Ziafat, Lillian Wilkins, Hannah Silk, Lisa M. Linares, Ryan C. Thompson, Eric Vornholt, Brendan Sullivan, Vanessa V. Cohen, Prashant Kota, Claudia Feng, Esther Cheng, Jessica Johnson, Marysia-Kolbe Rieder, , Alexander W. Charney

This study compares gene expression in living and postmortem human brain tissue, finding significant differences that challenge the assumption that postmortem data accurately represents living brain gene expression.
