Exciting work on #somatotopic_maps, it shows that Teneurin and Latrophilin gradients are involved in their making, and that mice in which such maps are distorted have a hard time finding the location of a stimulus on their body!

Spinal cord formation, function, and beyond

This workshop explores how the spinal cord links sensation to action. Within this remarkable part of the nervous system, incoming sensory information is processed and filtered, and precise patterns...

Our goal is to bring together a diverse group of people to discuss molecular and cellular approaches to study nervous system development, neuronal circuit formation and function, as well as neurological diseases.

The aim of the workshop is to cover all aspects of spinal cord development, circuit formation, and function, as well as to extend the discussion to related areas of developmental neurobiology.

On behalf of the organizers, I wish to bring to your attention “Spinal cord formation, function, and beyond” meeting to be held on March 11-14, 2025 ,at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology Graduate University (OIST) in Okinawa, Japan.
