Vertebrate eye development is a dynamic process that couples morphogenesis, migration of extraocular periocular mesenchyme (POM) cells to the eye, and retinal patterning along the nasotemporal and dorsoventral (DV) axes. Aberrant patterning during ocular development often results in defects...

Sensory systems are complex structures that receive stimuli from the surrounding environment and convert them into interpretable information. In the visual system, light hitting the eye is transmitted to the brain in a way that preserves the spatial conformation of the pictures we see. Retinal...

Axial patterning of the developing vertebrate eye is crucial for proper axon pathfinding, as well as critically important morphogenetic events such as closure of the ocular fissure. Perturbations in eye morphogenesis can lead to ocular coloboma (failed ocular fissure closure) and microphthalmia...
