Also known as the primary visual cortex, V1 responds to simple visual information such as orientation and direction. It passes on these signals to V2, which hands them off to V3, and so on. Each ...

This let us determine whether the visual cortex was changing how it represented the shapes depending on how we had defined the categories. We analyzed the data using computational machine learning ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine created a map of neural activity in a cubic millimeter of the primary visual cortex by recording brain cell responses while the laboratory mouse ran on a ...

The result includes more than half a billion connections across one cubic millimeter of brain tissue, including the primary visual cortex and the retina. “What is unique about this data is that it ...

“It’s supposed to be the primary olfactory cortex.” Precisely. You wouldn’t expect your vision centers to respond to odors or sounds.

Abstract Behavioral modulations can alter the visual tuning of neurons in the mouse thalamocortical pathway Behavioral influences shape processing in the retina and the dorsal lateral geniculate ...

“These chips are very efficient platforms for simulating biological neural networks.” To open his seminar, Imam showed circuit connectivity and neural response properties of the primary visual cortex ...

Stimulus-selective response plasticity (SRP) is a robust and lasting modification of primary visual cortex (V1) that occurs in response to exposure to novel visual stimuli. It is readily observed as a ...

Frankowski, J.C., Foik, A.T., Tierno, A. et al. Traumatic brain injury to primary visual cortex produces long-lasting circuit dysfunction.

New research reveals that neurons in the visual cortex -- the part of the brain that processes visual stimuli -- change their responses to the same stimulus over time. Although other studies have ...

New research from Washington University in St. Louis reveals that neurons in the visual cortex — the part of the brain that processes visual stimuli — change their responses to the same ...
