Design Principles of Columnar Organization in Visual Cortex
Visual space is represented by cortical cells in an orderly manner. Only little variation in the cell behavior is found with changing depth below the cortical surface, that is, all cells in a column with axis perpendicular to the cortical plane have approximately the same properties (Hubel and Wiesel 1962, 1963, 1968). Therefore, the multiple features of the visual space (e.g., position in visu...
متن کاملColumnar organization in the motor cortex.
Despite many attempts to find spatial structure in the functional properties of neurons within the primary motor cortex (MI), there is still no compelling evidence for such structure despite the anatomical similarities between motor cortex and other neocortical areas. This is a longstanding puzzle in motor cortical physiology because topographic structure of function is a hallmark of primary se...
متن کاملDevelopment of columnar structures in visual cortex
Many features of visual scenes are represented in the visual cortex in the form of maps. The best studied of these are the maps of features such as ocular dominance and orientation in primary visual cortex (V1). The beautifully regular structure of these maps and their dependence on patterns of neural activity have inspired several different computational models. In this chapter we focus on wha...
متن کاملSpatial organization of astrocytes in ferret visual cortex
Astrocytes form an intricate partnership with neural circuits to influence numerous cellular and synaptic processes. One prominent organizational feature of astrocytes is the "tiling" of the brain with non-overlapping territories. There are some documented species and brain region-specific astrocyte specializations, but the extent of astrocyte diversity and circuit specificity are still unknown...
متن کاملCortical Columnar Organization Is Reconsidered in Inferior Temporal Cortex
The object selectivity of nearby cells in inferior temporal (IT) cortex is often different. To elucidate the relationship between columnar organization in IT cortex and the variability among neurons with respect to object selectivity, we used optical imaging technique to locate columnar regions (activity spots) and systematically compared object selectivity of individual neurons within and acro...
