Selective collateralization of transcriptomically distinct neurons organizes visual-stream output from the primary visual cortex

Maryam Majeed, Mara C.P. Rue, Aixin Zhang…·Xiaoyin Chen

The paper maps gene expression and axonal projections of neurons in the mouse primary visual cortex to reveal how retinotopy and cell-type-specific collateralization organize visual-stream output.
