Annotations

Basic breakdown of how RGC type names and how they are classified in CellMuseum:

  • gc/ac = ganglion cell, amacrine cell
  • m/b/t = monostratified, bistratified, tristratified
  • a = asymmetric

asymmetic dendritic arbor

  • r/d = regular or diffused

diffuseness of dendritic densities

  • n/w = narrow or wide

expansiveness of dendritic arbor

  • s/t = short or tall

breadth of dendritic densities (depthwise)

  • o/f = ON or OFF

stratification layer of dendrites in IPL

  • 1-10 = depth in retina

layer dendrites stratify in (10 is closest to GCL) For a more detailed annotation, visit blog.eyewire.org
