title: Phosphoribosomes for fingerprinting neurons.
abstract: The mammalian brain comprises a diverse variety of cell types. Fine characterization of specific subpopulations of neurons, however, has been a technical challenge. Here, Knight et al. describe an elegant technique for high throughput of molecular profiling of activated hypothalamic neurons.
