Author Information
Wieland B. Huttner is a prominent researcher affiliated with the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics, located at Pfotenhauerstrasse 108, 01307 Dresden, Germany. His research primarily focuses on the development and evolution of the neocortex, a part of the brain crucial for higher-order functions such as sensory perception, cognition, and motor control.Research Contributions
Wieland B. Huttner has made significant contributions to the field of genetics and neuroscience, particularly in understanding neocortex development. His research includes exploring the human-specific aspects of neocortex development, examining the role of extracellular matrix in neural progenitor cell proliferation, and investigating the effects of human-specific genes like ARHGAP11B on brain expansion and memory flexibility. In addition, he has also delved into epigenetic modifications, such as H3 acetylation, and their impact on basal progenitor proliferation and neocortex expansion. His work leverages cutting-edge techniques such as CRISPR/Cas9-based genome and epigenome editing.Aliases
