  "summary": "Through childhood and adolescence, profound changes to the physiology of individual neurons accompany large-scale network changes in the mammalian neocortex. These physiological changes are well understood in rodent models but far less is known in the human neocortex. Here we combine patch-clamp electrophysiology and single-cell sequencing (Patch-Seq) in neurosurgically-resected pediatric human…",
