                      during neurogenesis, but the extent of epigenetic remodeling
                      during human cortical development remains unknown. Here, we
                      characterize the epigenetic landscape of the human
                      developing neocortex by leveraging Epi-CyTOF, a
                      mass-cytometry-based approach for the simultaneous
                      single-cell analysis of more than 30 epigenetic marks. We
                      identify Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2)-mediated
                      H3K27me3 as the modification with the strongest
                      cell-type-specific enrichment. Inhibition of PRC2 in human
                      cortical organoids resulted in a shift of neural progenitor
                      cell (NPC) proliferation toward differentiation.
                      Cell-type-specific profiling of H3K27me3 identified neuronal
                      differentiation and extracellular matrix (ECM) genes in the
                      human neocortex. PRC2 inhibition resulted in increased
                      production of the ECM proteins Syndecan 1 and laminin alpha
                      1. Overall, this study comprehensively characterizes the
                      epigenetic state of specific neural cell types and
                      highlights a novel role for H3K27me3 in regulating the ECM
                      composition in the human developing neocortex.},
