Abstract: The striatum, the largest nucleus of the basal ganglia controlling motor and cognitive functions, can be characterized by a labyrinthine mosaic organization of striosome/matrix compartments. It is unclear how striosome/matrix mosaic formation is spatially and… read more here.

Abstract: Individual retinal cell types exhibit semi-regular spatial patterns called retinal mosaics. Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and starburst amacrine cells (SACs) are known to exhibit such layouts. Mechanisms responsible for the formation of mosaics are not… read more here.
