Funded Activity Summary

The retina lines the back of the eye and sends multiple movies of the visual world to the brain. This project aims to investigate how these multiple information channels are created. Descriptions of the basic pattern of wiring in the healthy retina will help clinical researchers to understand the disruptions that occur in visual disease. The precision of normal retinal wiring also delineates the precision required to restore normal function to a diseased or degenerating eye.
