I like the @eLife annotations system. I've just added links a set of additional YouTube videos that complement some of the figures in my paper: https://t.co/h8FyWNjShs

神経がどう配線されるのか？（バレル） Centre-point（事前に中心が設定）とReaction-diffusion model（分子濃度勾配による自己組織化）があるけどこれまで統合されていなかった。 結果、シミュレーション上、2種のgradientで特殊な配線（バレル）ができたらしい。面白い。 https://t.co/t4LICVjsZG

So this model describes a simple way that specific structures can be *copied* across the central nervous system. You can watch the main result unfold here: https://t.co/uxCCnLzY2R Thanks for reading! 13/13 (phew!)
