  • A molecular mechanism for the topographic alignment of convergent neural maps 

    Savier, E; Eglen, Stephen John; Bathélémy, A; Perraut, M; Pfrieger, FW; Lemke, G; Reber, M (eLife Sciences Publications LtdeLife, 2017-03-14)
    Sensory processing requires proper alignment of neural maps throughout the brain. In the superficial layers of the superior colliculus of the midbrain, converging projections from retinal ganglion cells and neurons in ...

  • Quantitative assessment of computational models for retinotopic map formation 

    Hjorth, JJ Johannes; Sterratt, David C; Cutts, Catherine S; Willshaw, David J; Eglen, Stephen John (WileyDevelopmental Neurobiology, 2014-11-14)
    Molecular and activity-based cues acting together are thought to guide retinal axons to their terminal sites in vertebrate optic tectum or superior colliculus (SC) to form an ordered map of connections. The details of ...
