Abstract: Adaptation of visual responses enhances visual information processing mainly by preserving the full dynamic range of neuronal responses during changing light conditions and is found throughout the whole visual system. Although adaptation in the primate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2214833120
Abstract: We have previously shown that recovery of visual responses to a deprived eye during the critical period in mouse primary visual cortex (V1) requires both export of mRNA encoding brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ejn.15877
Abstract: The receptive field of many visual neurons is composed of a central responsive area, the classical receptive field, and a non‐classical receptive field, also called the “suppressive surround.” A visual stimulus placed in the suppressive… read more here.

Abstract: A large body of work has linked neural oscillations in the alpha-band (8–13 Hz) to visual perceptual outcomes. In particular, studies have found that alpha phase prior to stimulus onset predicts stimulus detection, and sensory responses… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.63705
Abstract: During navigation, the visual responses of neurons in mouse primary visual cortex (V1) are modulated by the animal’s spatial position. Here we show that this spatial modulation is similarly present across multiple higher visual areas… read more here.
