A forward genetic screen with a thalamocortical axon reporter mouse yields novel neurodevelopment mutants and a distinct <it>emx2 </it>mutant phenotype

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The dorsal thalamus acts as a gateway and modulator for information going to and from the cerebral cortex. This activity requires the formation of reciprocal topographic axon connections between thalamus and cortex. The axons grow al...
