Funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health, the study utilized post - mortem brain tissues from over 2,500 donors. It mapped the gene regulatory networks across different stages of brain development and those associated with a variety of brain disorders. The papers reported their findings according to several key themes, expanding on previous discoveries and exploring multiple cortical and subcortical regions of the human brain. These regions play crucial roles in a range of important functions, such as decision - making, memory, learning, emotion, reward processing, and motor control. This research not only deepens our understanding of how genes regulate brain functions but also holds great potential for further exploration of the biological mechanisms underlying brain diseases. The data and methods presented in these papers are expected to provide valuable resources for the broader scientific community, opening new avenues for research into the complex workings of the human brain.
