Chunk #47 — Dynamics of Gene Expression in the Brain through the Life-Span — Program of developmental changes of gene expression in the brain through the life-span
Since gene expression dynamics are a characteristic of regular molecular mechanisms of development during the entire life span, studies of gene expression patterns at different stages of the lifespan are needed to understand the main molecular processes underlying development and its disorders. During the last decade, those studies have become an issue of special interest to a number of scientific teams whose efforts are aimed at understanding gene expression and its age-related dynamics in the brain, as well as creating special resources combining those data, such as Atlases representing the temporal and spatial variability of gene expression in the brain.
