An NMDA receptor-dependent mechanism for subcellular segregation of sensory inputs in the tadpole optic tectum
In the vertebrate CNS, afferent sensory inputs are targeted to specific depths or layers of their target neuropil. This patterning exists ab initio, from the very beginning, and therefore has been considered an activity-independent process. However, here we report that, during circuit development, t...
