The ON/OFF dichotomy is fundamental to visual processing. In a new study led by Flori Soto, we identify a conserved molecular mechanism establishing the OFF pathway. https://t.co/is4NEvc0ME

@mazouache Thanks!

[Suva Roy @roy_suva]

Thrilled to share the first work from my lab @MoranEyeCenter. It was fun writing the paper, tying findings in genetics with cell type specific degeneration in glaucoma. Many exciting research ideas in this new area for my lab.
