Learning Objectives
1. Learn about principles of neural circuit formation, and the importance
of studying candidate wiring molecules and unbiased neural tracing
methods to understand how the brain is precisely wired.
2. Learn about how cell adhesion molecules belonging to the
Protocadherin family regulate patterns of neuronal connectivity.
3. Learn about a new method for labeling interconnected 3. neurons in vivo.
