This manuscript presents a valuable analysis of how locomotion modulates the activity of different subtypes of cortical neurons in the mouse primary visual cortex, showing that locomotion more ...

Researchers have settled a 60-year-old debate in neuroscience, proving that the visual cortex constructs complex images from raw thalamic data. Using high-resolution synaptic imaging, the study ...

A scientific dispute spanning six decades about fundamental mechanisms of visual perception in mammals has now been settled.

The 1950s were a relatively rudimentary era for experimental neurophysiology. Recording the electrical activity of neurons wasn’t uncommon, but the methods often demanded considerable patience and ...

Much as a pilot might practice maneuvers in a flight simulator, scientists might soon be able to perform experiments on a realistic simulation of the mouse brain. In a new study, Stanford Medicine ...
