Summary
This paper discusses the role of Tbr2 in the development of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) that participate in non-image-forming circuits, and how its removal results in decreased retinal projections to non-image-forming areas and an attenuated pupillary light reflex.
Categories
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the role of Tbr2 in the development of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), which are crucial for visual processing and thus cognitive function.
Eye health: The paper explores the impact of Tbr2 removal on the development and function of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), which are crucial for eye health.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper's findings on the role of Tbr2 in non-image-forming circuits, which mediate light-induced subconscious behaviors, could have implications for lighting design.
