Retinal waves are unlikely to instruct the formation of eye-specific retinogeniculate projections

<p>Abstract</p> <p>In all mammalian species the projections of the two eyes to the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus are initially overlapping before gradually forming the eye-specific domains evident at maturity. It is widely thought that retinal waves of neuronal activity play an...
