DOI: 10.1002/cne.24207
Abstract: Directional responses in retinal ganglion cells are generated in large part by direction‐selective release of γ‐aminobutyric acid from starburst amacrine cells onto direction‐selective ganglion cells (DSGCs). The excitatory inputs to DSGCs are also widely reported… read more here.

Abstract: Early direction-selective neurons in the primary visual cortex are widely considered to be the main neural basis underlying motion perception even though motion perception can also rely on attentively tracking the position of objects. Because… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2203748119
Abstract: Significance Several classes of auditory brain stem neurons have extremely fast membranes; they are thought to be coincidence detectors and ideal for encoding rapid temporal fluctuations of sounds. Of those neurons, octopus cells are perhaps… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abi7112
Abstract: Self-motion generates visual patterns on the eye that are important for navigation. These optic flow patterns are encoded by the population of local direction–selective cells in the mouse retina, whereas in flies, local direction–selective T4/T5… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnmol.2021.790466
Abstract: The mammalian retina extracts a multitude of diverse features from the visual scene such as color, contrast, and direction of motion. These features are transmitted separately to the brain by more than 40 different retinal… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.34241
Abstract: A common strategy by which developing neurons locate their synaptic partners is through projections to circuit-specific neuropil sublayers. Once established, sublayers serve as a substrate for selective synapse formation, but how sublayers arise during neurodevelopment… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.52949
Abstract: Recent studies indicate that the precise timing and location of excitation and inhibition (E/I) within active dendritic trees can significantly impact neuronal function. How synaptic inputs are functionally organized at the subcellular level in intact… read more here.
