Neuronal Representation of Ultraviolet Visual Stimuli in Mouse Primary Visual Cortex
The mouse has become an important model for understanding the neural basis of visual perception. Although it has long been known that mouse lens transmits ultraviolet (UV) light and mouse opsins have absorption in the UV band, little is known about how UV visual information is processed in the mouse brain. Using a custom UV stimulation system and in vivo calcium imaging, we characterized the fe...
متن کاملAn fMRI study of human visual cortex in response to spatiotemporal properties of visual stimuli
ABSTRACT Background: The brain response to temporal frequencies (TF) has been already reported, but with no study reported for different TF with respect to various spatial frequencies (SF). Materials and Methods: fMRI was performed by 1.5T GE-system in 14 volunteers during checkerboard, with TFs of 4, 6, 8 and 10Hz in low and high SFs of 0.5 and 8cpd. Results: Average percentage BOLD signa...
متن کاملRepresentation of Color Stimuli in Awake Macaque Primary Visual Cortex
We investigated the responses of single neurons in primary visual cortex (area V1) of awake monkeys to chromatic stimuli. Chromatic tuning properties, determined for homogeneous color patches presented on a neutral gray background, varied strongly between cells. The continuum of preferred chromaticities and tuning widths indicated a distributed representation of color signals in V1. When stimul...
متن کاملNeuronal responses during and after the presentation of static visual stimuli in macaque primary visual cortex.
Viewing static visual scenes for several seconds or longer can induce a wide variety of striking percepts, including negative afterimages, fading, and motion aftereffects. To characterize the neuronal bases of such phenomena and elucidate functional circuitry in the visual system, we recorded responses of neurons in primary visual cortex (V1) of anesthetized macaques during and after the presen...
متن کاملRepresentation of visual scenes by local neuronal populations in layer 2/3 of mouse visual cortex
How are visual scenes encoded in local neural networks of visual cortex? In rodents, visual cortex lacks a columnar organization so that processing of diverse features from a spot in visual space could be performed locally by populations of neighboring neurons. To examine how complex visual scenes are represented by local microcircuits in mouse visual cortex we measured visually evoked response...
