Mechanisms underlying development of visual maps and receptive fields
Patterns of synaptic connections in the visual system are remarkably precise. These
connections dictate the receptive field properties of individual visual neurons and ultimately …

Architecture, function, and assembly of the mouse visual system
Vision is the sense humans rely on most to navigate the world, make decisions, and perform
complex tasks. Understanding how humans see thus represents one of the most …

Diverse visual features encoded in mouse lateral geniculate nucleus
The thalamus is crucial in determining the sensory information conveyed to cortex. In the
visual system, the thalamic lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) is generally thought to encode …

Developmental mechanisms of topographic map formation and alignment
Brain connections are organized into topographic maps that are precisely aligned both
within and across modalities. This alignment facilitates coherent integration of different …

The mouse superior colliculus: an emerging model for studying circuit formation and function
The superior colliculus (SC) is a midbrain area where visual, auditory and somatosensory
information are integrated to initiate motor commands. The SC plays a central role in visual …

Critical period plasticity matches binocular orientation preference in the visual cortex
Changes of ocular dominance in the visual cortex can be induced by visual manipulations
during a critical period in early life. However, the role of critical period plasticity in normal …

Visual map development: bidirectional signaling, bifunctional guidance molecules, and competition
Topographic maps are a two-dimensional representation of one neural structure within
another and serve as the main strategy to organize sensory information. The retina's …

A theory of the transition to critical period plasticity: inhibition selectively suppresses spontaneous activity
What causes critical periods (CPs) to open? For the best-studied case, ocular dominance

Development, form, and function of the mouse visual thalamus
W Guido - Journal of neurophysiology, 2018 - journals.physiology.org
The dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the thalamus is the exclusive relay of retinal
information en route to the visual cortex. Although much of our understanding about dLGN …
