Repeated evolution of eye regression in subterranean mammals helps identify genes and regulatory elements involved in visual perception and development of the eye, and predicts candidate sequences with a potential role in ocular disorders.

The lens-averted domains of the optic vesicle are reservoirs of neuroretinal cells that flow into the developing optic cup in a process that is critically influenced by BMP signaling.

Mouse retina manifests homeostatic plasticity and adapts to photoreceptor degeneration to resist visual decline.

Children with ASD showed a significant divergence in gaze patterns compared to typically developing children, intensifying over early childhood, with implications for developmental and adaptive functioning.

Functional hypoconnectivity between ‘social brain’ default mode circuitry and visual association cortex underpins a subtype of autistic toddlers with a strong preference to attend to the non-social visual world.

A previously unknown oncogenic feature of an embryonic transcription factor was uncovered from transcriptomic analysis of tumors that lack functional Polycomb silencing.

Two hour deprivation of vision in one eye transiently boosts the representation of the deprived eye (suppressing the non-deprived eye) in adult human V1 and along the ventral pathway.

By using a specialized camera that corrects for eye blur, millions of single-blood-cells are imaged, and their speed measured, as they travel through the largest-to-smallest vessels of the retina.

To generate stable and robust connectivity refinements, the amplitude of spontaneous activity events in the developing visual cortex adapts to the recent history of cortical activation.

Dominant mutations in Arl3, linked to inherited retinal dystrophy, disrupt the active Arl3-GTP ciliary gradient and cause a defect in rod photoreceptor nuclear migration that can be rescued by elevating ciliary Arl3 activity or reducing aberrant non-ciliary Arl3 activity.
