Studying retinal morphogenesis in the developing eye of fruit flies, researchers in Science identified spontaneous calcium waves originating from non-neuronal cells responsible for orchestrating tissue architecture in the developing nervous system. scim.ag/44r2Jtg

Retinal calcium waves coordinate uniform tissue patterning of the Drosophila eye
Optimal neural processing relies on precise tissue patterning across diverse cell types. Here, we show that spontaneous calcium waves arise among non-neuronal support cells in the developing Drosophil...
