Abstract Posterior fossa type A (PFA) ependymoma is an unusual infantile brain tumour with few known somatic mutations, thought to be driven by epigenetic mechanisms1.

Here we show that the cellular hierarchy of PFA ependymoma is less differentiated in male individuals than it is in female individuals.
