Correlational Structure of Spontaneous Neuronal Activity in the Developing Lateral Geniculate Nucleus in Vivo
Michael Weliky,Lawrence C. Katz +1 more
TL;DR: Recording in the lateral geniculate nucleus of awake behaving ferrets revealed patterns of spontaneous activity that reflect a reshaping of retinal drive within higher visual stages, which emerge from interactions between retina, thalamus, and cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between Local Synaptic Connections and Orientation Domains in Primary Visual Cortex
TL;DR: The spatial relationships between synaptic inputs onto individual neurons and the pattern of orientation columns are most consistent with feedforward models for generation of orientation selectivity and are inconsistent with the patterns required by models based on cross-orientation inhibition.
