Adaptation maintains population homeostasis in primary visual cortex.
(2013-06)Sensory systems exhibit mechanisms of neural adaptation, which adjust neuronal activity on the basis of recent stimulus history. In primary visual cortex (V1) in particular, adaptation controls the responsiveness of ... -
Coding of stimulus sequences by population responses in visual cortex.
(2009-10)Neuronal populations in sensory cortex represent time-changing sensory input through a spatiotemporal code. What are the rules that govern this code? We measured membrane potentials and spikes from neuronal populations in ... -
Standing waves and traveling waves distinguish two circuits in visual cortex.
(2007-07-05)The visual cortex represents stimuli through the activity of neuronal populations. We measured the evolution of this activity in space and time by imaging voltage-sensitive dyes in cat area V1. Contrast-reversing stimuli ...
