Guidance of longitudinally projecting axons in the developing central nervous system

The directed and stereotypical growth of axons to their synaptic targets is a crucial phase of neural circuit formation. Many axons in the developing vertebrate and invertebrate central nervous systems (CNS), including those that remain on their own (ipsilateral), and those that cross over to the o...
