CRISPR construct to genetically ablate the GABA transporter GAT3 in the mouse visual cortex, with effects on population-level neuronal activity. This work is important, as it sheds light on how GAT3 ...

Understanding how the human brain represents the information picked up by the senses is a longstanding objective of ...

Our brains begin to create internal representations of the world around us from the first moment we open our eyes. We perceptually assemble components of scenes into recognizable objects thanks to ...

The researchers found that the specific location of this clutter within the monkey’s visual field didn’t have much of an effect on how information was passed between neurons in the primary visual ...

Primary visual cortex. This area, also known as Broadman area 17 or V1, is the occipital lobe's primary visual cortex.

HBP researchers have trained a large-scale model of the primary visual cortex of the mouse to solve visual tasks in a highly robust way.

For reasons unclear, different facets of visual stimuli are mapped in the primary visual cortex in patterns that differ across species.

The visual cortex, the part of the brain that receives information from the eyes, has been known to respond to sound or touch in people who are blind. Researchers have now shown it may be ...

A deeper understanding of the functional impairments in damaged visual cortex is important because it can provide a basis for developing circuit-level therapies for visual cortex damage.

While a mouse watched the movie, researchers simultaneously recorded activity in several hundred neurons in the primary visual cortex, using two-photon calcium imaging.
