Abstract

© 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. The mammalian visual system has been extensively studied over the last 50 years. However, many aspects of how this precise and complex system develops remain unclear. This article focuses on the role of activity in visual development, which is known to be an important one, but full details of how and where activity contributes in development are yet to be clarified.
