SCm (Superior colliculus, motor related) projects to LP (Lateral posterior nucleus of the thalamus)

All claims for this connection
Species
Mouse
Result
present
Method
anterograde tracer
Sign
unknown
Strength
strong
Evidence
AAV-CaMKIIa-EYFP injected into the ILSCm labelled axons that prominently innervated the LP. These axons overlapped with LP neurons that were retrogradely labelled from the LA.
