Scope and Contents

Contents

Using a combination of viral-tracing and
in vivo
imaging techniques, the authors show that there are several parallel pathways in the mouse visual system and that directional and orientation selectivity in the cortex may arise from the specialized tuning of retinal circuits.
How the eye observes directional change
The motion-detecting c...
