We show associations between specific SNPs and expression levels in different regions of the developing human brain, indicating that genetic variation contributes to inter-individual transcriptome variability across regions and development. While the current number of specimens in our dataset restricted our power to detect many of the possible eQTLs, we have identified a set of cis-eQTLs, including many not previously reported, that may provide insights into expression-regulatory elements operating in the brain.
