A multi-region single nucleus transcriptomic atlas of Parkinson’s disease Open
Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by motor and cognitive impairments, that affects >1% of the population over the age of 60. The pathogenesis of PD is complex and remains largely unknown. …

A lifespan transcriptomic atlas of the human prefrontal cortex at single-cell resolution Open
The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) underpins higher cognitive functions and is highly susceptible to age-related decline. However, a comprehensive, lifespan-resolved map of its cellular and molecular programs has been lacking. Here…

Single-nucleus transcriptome-wide association study of human brain disorders Open
Neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders exhibit cell-type-specific characteristics 1–8 , yet most transcriptome-wide association studies have been constrained by the use of homogenate brain tissue 9–11 , limiting their resolution …

Single-cell atlas of transcriptomic vulnerability across multiple neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases Open
Neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases impose a significant societal and public health burden. However, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying these highly complex conditions remains limited. To gain deeper insig…

Plasticity of Human Microglia and Brain Perivascular Macrophages in Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease Open
The complex roles of myeloid cells, including microglia and perivascular macrophages, are central to the neurobiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), yet they remain incompletely understood. Here, we profiled 832,505 human myeloid cells from …

Efficient differential expression analysis of large-scale single cell transcriptomics data using dreamlet Open
Advances in single-cell and -nucleus transcriptomics have enabled generation of increasingly large-scale datasets from hundreds of subjects and millions of cells. These studies promise to give unprecedented insight into the cell type speci…

MicroRNA Alterations in Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Open
Repetitive head impacts (RHI) and traumatic brain injuries are risk factors for the neurodegenerative diseases chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). ALS and CTE are distinct disorders, yet in some …
