Visual Cortex Gains Independence from Peripheral Drive before Eye Opening

Visual Cortex Gains Independence from Peripheral Drive before Eye Opening, By simultaneously measuring input activity and output activity, Gribizis et al. show that peripheral spontaneous retinal activity consistently and strongly drives response in the midbrain superior colliculus during development, while the cortex becomes progressively less sensitive to peripheral drive., By simultaneously measuring input activity and output activity, Gribizis et al. show that peripheral spontaneous retinal activity consistently and strongly drives response in the midbrain superior colliculus during development, while the cortex becomes progressively less sensitive to peripheral drive., admin,
