Single-cell RNA-sequencing of differentiating iPS cells reveals dynamic genetic effects on gene expression.

abstract：:Evidence from animal and human studies has suggested that the amygdala plays a role in detecting threat and in directing attention to the eyes. Nevertheless, there has been no systematic investigation of whether the amygdala specifically facilitates attention to the eyes or whether other features can also drive attent...
