Our finding that tuned inputs are conveyed to L4 of primary visual cortex suggests a ... Andermann, M.L., Bonin, V. & Reid, R.C. Cortico-cortical projections in mouse visual cortex are ...

By examining the activity of layer 2/3 excitatory neurons in the mouse primary visual cortex, the authors demonstrate that learning enhances the relative impact of top-down processing by the ...

New research demonstrates neural communication in visual cortex using a combination of methods for tracing the projections of individual neurons across the brain. An international collaboration of ...

New barcode-based method demonstrates neural communication in visual cortex by tracing projections of individual neurons. An international team of scientists from Sainsbury Wellcome Centre (London, UK ...

In the Nature paper, the team outline the two complementary methods they used to map the projection patterns. Firstly, they used whole-brain fluorescence-based axonal tracing by labelling neurons in ...

A new study from the Institute of Neuroscience and Psychology at the University of Glasgow has found that the visual cortex – a part of the brain that processes information from the eyes ...

The visual cortex – a region of the brain known to process sensory information – plays a key role in promoting the plasticity of innate, spontaneous eye movements, according to a study.

Now, a software model of the visual cortex is shining light on how we do it. ... Crucially, unlike the human brain, the model does not have the ability to do “back projections”, ...
