Visual Pursuit: An Instructive Area of Cortex
Recent experiments have revealed an area of visual cortex that provides a velocity error signal which enables the eye to learn to pursue targets when they move in a predictable way.
متن کاملInstructive Effect of Visual Experience in Mouse Visual Cortex
We describe a form of experience-dependent response enhancement in the visual cortex of awake mice. Repeated presentations of grating stimuli of a single orientation result in a persistent enhancement of responses evoked by the test stimulus. Response potentiation is specific to the orientation of the test stimulus, develops gradually over the course of several training sessions, and occurs in ...
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 کاملEffects of visual deprivation on synaptic plasticity of visual cortex
TBS (Theta Burst Stimulation) and PBs (Primed Bursts) are among effective tetanic stimulations for induction of LTP in hippocampus. Recent studies have indicated that TBS is effective in LTP induction in layer III synapses of neocortex, only if applied to layer IV. However, the possibility of neocortical LTP induction using PBs, has not yet been investigated. Sensory deprivation greatly influ...
متن کاملAltered visual experience induces instructive changes of orientation preference in mouse visual cortex.
Stripe rearing, the restriction of visual experience to contours of only one orientation, leads to an overrepresentation of the experienced orientation among neurons in the visual cortex. It is unclear, however, how these changes are brought about. Are they caused by silencing of neurons tuned to non-experienced orientations, or do some neurons change their preferred orientation? To address thi...
