Looking Retinal Development Straight into the Eye

Caption

The image shows two developing eyefield tissues growing out of a seven-day-old cell aggregate generated from mouse embryonic stem cells, which subsequently give rise to 3-D stratified retinal organoids. Eyefields are revealed by immunostaining for the eyefield transcription factors RAX and LHX2 shown in red and green colors, respectively, and cell nuclei are counterstained by DAPI (grey).
