Findings (2)
- Ectopic Eye on Tadpole TailTadpoles bearing eyes placed on tails can see and learn effectively despite novel neural connections (to spinal cord or gut), demonstrating plastic sensorimotor reinterpretation.
- Tadpoles with eyes on their tails perform visual learning tasksEctopic eyes in Xenopus tadpoles connect to the spinal cord and enable visual learning despite incorrect anatomical location.
