  "summary": "Retinal development has been extensively studied and key transcriptional regulators that drive fate decisions have been identified for major cell classes. These findings were confirmed and deepened in recent years with the advance of single cell RNA sequencing (Scrase). However, many processes that guide progenitor to postmitotic cell differentiation remain elusive, especially since some genes…",
