Inspiring talks at #AXON2025:
@eloisaherrera.bsky.social on reusing axon guidance mechanisms to repair the adult visual system, and @guillelbendito.bsky.social (@glb-lab.bsky.social) on how spontaneous activity and genes shape sensory circuit development 👏#Neuroscience

Congrats also to Dr. @veromb.bsky.social and PhD students Patricia Ordoño & @lpuche1.bsky.social for presenting their posters at #AXON2025!
Great discussions on retinal activity, visual system repair & thalamic development.
Fantastic representation of @neuroalc.bsky.social at this meeting 👏

Enhorabuena por el premio!!!🥳🥳🥳

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Congrats!🍾

On fire 🔥😝

This work opens up new avenues for exploring EphA4 broader implications in other cellular contexts, including cell differentiation, migration and synaptic plasticity

Instead of repulsion as previously belief, the tyrosine kinase receptor EphA4, through its ligand ephrinB1, mediates cell adhesion during the establishment of the visual retinotopic map along the medio-lateral collicular axis 🧐

Short thread below 🧵
We have identified a novel role for the EphA4 protein in visual system development

Thanks to everyone who made this possible 🥰
