- Reposted by Bio Engineering LaboratoryExcited to share our Nature Neuroscience paper! We explored how the human #retina keeps signals in sync despite big differences in axon length. Great collaboration with @iobswiss.bsky.social + @bel-bsse.bsky.social — special thanks to @ffranke.bsky.social #neuroskyence 🧠👁️⏱️ bsky.app/profile/natn...
