In macaque monkeys, lesions involving the posterior portion of the inferior temporal cortex,
cytoarchitectonic area TEO, produce a severe impairment in visual pattern discrimination. …

Eight monoclonal antibodies were used to label Müller cells in four mammals that have
vascular retinae (cats, dogs, humans, and rats) and in three with avascular retinae (echidnas, …

The canonical view of neuronal function is that inputs are received by dendrites and somata,
become integrated in the somatodendritic compartment and upon reaching a sufficient …

A defining feature of the primate visual system is its foveated nature. Processing of foveal
retinal input is important not only for high-quality visual scene analysis but also for ensuring …

Previous studies have investigated the effects of acetylcholine (ACh) on neuronal tuning,
coding, and attention in primary visual cortex, but its contribution to coding in extrastriate cortex …

Top-down attention increases coding abilities by altering firing rates and rate variability. In the
frontal eye field (FEF), a key area enabling top-down attention, attention induced firing rate …

The nucleus of the optic tract and dorsal terminal nucleus of the accessory optic system (NOT‐DTN)
along with the dorsolateral pontine nucleus (DLPN) have been shown to play a role …

Attention is critical to high-level cognition, and attentional deficits are a hallmark of cognitive
dysfunction. A key transmitter for attentional control is acetylcholine, but its cellular actions in …

Astrocytes are found throughout the central nervous system. They interact closely with
surrounding structures, their processes contributing to the glia limitans of the neural tube, and to …

We studied the temporal behavior and tuning properties of medial superior temporal (MST)
neurons in response to constant flow-field stimulation and continuously changing flow-field …
