Identification of proliferative progenitors associated with prominent postnatal growth of the pons

The pons controls crucial sensorimotor and autonomic functions. In humans, it grows sixfold postnatally and is a site of paediatric gliomas; however, the mechanisms of pontine growth remain poorly understood.
