DESCRIPTION:Connie Cepko\, Harvard University\, Boston\, USA\nDuring devel
 opment\, the retinal progenitor cells must make >120 cell types. Moreover\
 , it makes them in frequencies that vary over 5 orders of magnitude\, and 
 distributes each type uniformly so that all areas of the retina can proces
 s incoming\, local signals. Several lines of evidence suggest that the ove
 rall strategy that accomplishes all of these goals is an intrinsic program
  running over time within the retinal progenitor cells.
