recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Neuron"

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuron.2018.02.006

Abstract: Considerable theoretical and experimental effort has been dedicated to understanding how neural circuits detect visual motion. In primates, much is known about the cortical circuits that contribute to motion processing, but the role of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuron.2018.03.007

Abstract: Motion sensitivity requires the comparison of neural responses activated by nearby points in visual space. In this issue of Neuron, Manookin et al. (2018) find that in the primate retina, such comparisons are already manifest in second-order… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-019-11734-4

Abstract: An animal’s motion through the environment can induce large and frequent fluctuations in light intensity on the retina. These fluctuations pose a major challenge to neural circuits tasked with encoding visual information, as they can… read more here.

DOI: 10.1167/jov.22.3.44

Abstract: Our visual performance varies remarkably across space. For instance, our central vision exhibits the highest spatial and chromatic sensitivity, whereas temporal sensitivity is higher for our peripheral than central vision. Our high-acuity central vision is… read more here.
