The mice could not only sense the presence of light, but they also responded to a moving black-and-white pattern ... the next layer of cells in the visual circuit, called bipolar cells.

The temporal pattern of spontaneous RGC activity may also be informative for other aspects of visual system development ... with changes in neuronal and circuit morphology and function.

In a study published in Neuron, a research team led by Prof. Wang Liping from the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology ...

This pattern, known as "optic flow," provides ... They have also mapped the full circuit responsible for this visual computation and revealed how it guides the fly's steering behavior.

Howard Hughes Medical Institute-led research has uncovered three neural circuit mechanisms that enable female fruit flies to modify their visual processing during aggressive interactions.

Until now, scientists knew little about the effects of TBI on long-term visual circuit function. A team of researchers led by John C. Frankowski from the Department of Anatomy & Neurobiology ...
