Time to stop; agent-based modelling of chemoaffinity with competition
SS James, SP Wilson - bioRxiv, 2021 - biorxiv.org
In the classic Chemoaffinity theory, the retinotectal axon projection is thought to use pairs of
orthogonal signalling gradients in the retina to specify the eventual location of synapses …
