The importance of combinatorial gene expression in early mammalian thalamic patterning and thalamocortical axonal guidance
The thalamus is essential for sensory perception. In mammals, work on the mouse has taught us most of what we know about how it develops and connects to the cortex. The mature thalamus of all mammalian species comprises numerous anatomically distinct collections of neurons called nuclei that differ...
