Abstract excerpt
The Drosophila larval optic nerve, called Bolwig's nerve (BN), projects into the central brain along a simple invariant path. The growth of the BN proceeds in three phases, during which the nerve changes direction at two intermediate targets, P1 and P2. Here we show that the projection of the BN...
