Albinism is a pigment disorder affecting eye, skin and/or hair. Patients usually have
decreased melanin in affected tissues and suffer from severe visual abnormalities, including …

Tissue clearing increases the transparency of late developmental stages and enables deep
imaging in fixed organisms. Successful implementation of these methodologies requires a …

Seeing in three dimensions is a major property of the visual system in mammals. The circuit
underlying this property begins in the retina, from which retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) extend …

Sensory systems evolve and enable organisms to perceive their sensory Umwelt, the unique
set of cues relevant for their survival. The multiple components that comprise sensory …

The study of neural development is usually concerned with the question of how nervous
systems get put together. Variation in these processes is usually of interest as a means of …

The mechanism of brain information processing unfolds within spatial and temporal domains
inherently linked to the concept of space–time symmetry. Biological evolution, beginning …

The mouse retina contains over 40 types of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) that differ in
morphology, function, or gene expression. RGCs also differ by whether their axons target the …

The development of the nervous system is a time-ordered and multi-stepped process that
includes neurogenesis and neuronal specification, axonal navigation, and circuits assembly …

In May, an interdisciplinary group gathered in Crete for the Molecular Neurobiology
Workshop. Scientists shared data acquired by vastly diverse techniques to understand how …

The developmental hourglass model predicts that embryonic morphology is most conserved
at the mid‐embryonic stage and diverges at the early and late stages. To date, this model …
