Abstract:From mouse to primate, there is a striking discontinuity in our current understanding of the neural coding of motion direction. In non-primate mammals, directionally selective cell types and circuits are a signature feature of the retina, situated at the earliest stage of the visual process1,2. In primates, by contrast, direction selectivity is a hallmark of motion processing areas in visual cortex3,4, but has not been found in the retina, despite significant effort5,6. Here we combined functional recordings o… Show more
