Our paper tying up some loose ends in our understanding of temporal patterning is out now! 🧠🪰 We show a single transcription factor (Tailless/TLX) terminates the temporal cascade across multiple neural stem cell lineages in the fly brain! journals.biologists.com/dev/article/...

Tailless terminates the neural stem cell temporal cascade in both the optic lobe and central brain
Summary: Are temporal cascades conserved in different neural lineages? Combining genetic manipulation and chromatin-binding assays in Drosophila, this study identifies Tailless/TLX as a conserved fact...
