How neurons build a 3-D vascular structure to keep the retina healthy

Scientists have known for years that a lattice of blood vessels nourishes cells in the retina that allow us to see — but it’s been a mystery how the intricate structure is created. Now, researchers at UC San Francisco have found a new type of neuron that guides its formation. The discovery, described in the … Read more
