TY - GEN N2 - We live in a world filled with nearly constant tactile stimuli, and our perceptions of and responses to these stimuli shape our many interactions. Processing the incredible diversity of tactile stimuli requires a wide array of specialized sensory neurons in the skin which pattern their peripheral receptors and central connections in a highly organized manner. In this dissertation, I use a suite of molecular and conditional genetic tools to explore the development of follicle-innervating LTMR neurons in mice.
