Auditory and visual neurons in the cat's superior colliculus selective for the direction of apparent motion stimuli

JP Rauschecker, LR Harris - Brain research, 1989 - Elsevier
In the cat, cells of the superior colliculus (SC) and the tectofugal pathways of the visual
system are highly selective for the direction of a moving visual stimulus. Deep layer units of …

A parametric study of movement detection properties of neurons in the cat's superior colliculus

BE Stein, MO Arigbede - Brain research, 1972 - Elsevier
Neurons responding to moving and stationary visual stimuli were studied in the superior
colliculus of the cat. The majority of neurons were most responsive to stimuli moved in …

Motion sensitivity in cat's superior colliculus: contribution of different visual processing channels to response properties of collicular neurons

W Waleszczyk, C Wang, G Benedek, W Burke… - Acta neurobiologiae …, 2004 - ane.pl
It is well established that neurons in the retinorecipient layers of superior colliculus (SC), the
mammalian homologue of the optic tectum of other vertebrates, are extremely sensitive to …

Visual-auditory interactions in cat superior colliculus: their role in the control of gaze

CK Peck - Brain Research, 1987 - Elsevier
Superior colliculus cells that respond to a given sensory input (visual or auditory) were
influenced by the presence of a stimulus in the other modality. This is a form of sensory …

Properties of excitatory and inhibitory regions in the receptive fields of single units in the cat's superior colliculus

B Dreher, KP Hoffmann - Experimental Brain Research, 1973 - Springer
The receptive field properties of single units in the cat superior colliculus have been
analyzed quantitatively from average response histograms of the activity elicited in these …

Responses to visual stimulation and relationship between visual, auditory, and somatosensory inputs in mouse superior colliculus

UC Drager, DH Hubel - Journal of Neurophysiology, 1975 - journals.physiology.org
The superior colliculus was studied in anesthetized mice by recording from single cells and
from unit clusters. The topographic representation of the visual filed was similar to what has …

Functional organization in the superior colliculus of the golden hamster

TY‐C, C Blakemore - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1976 - Wiley Online Library
The superior colliculus of the golden hamster was investigated by means of multi‐unit and
single unit recording. The retinotopic map, which probably embraces a projection from the …

Properties of superior colliculus neurons in the golden hamster

BE Stein, JP Dixon - Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1979 - Wiley Online Library
A laminar representation of sensory modalities was present in the hamster superior
colliculus (SC) with upper laminar cells being exclusively visual, while intermediate and …

Visuo‐oculomotor properties of cells in the superior colliculus of the alert cat

CK Peck, M Schlag‐Rey… - Journal of Comparative …, 1980 - Wiley Online Library
Visual responses and eye movement (EM)‐related activities were studied in single units of
the superior colliculus (SC) of alert cats. Spontaneous EMs were encouraged by training …

The spatial organisation of the excitatory region of receptive fields in the cat's superior colliculus

KP Hoffmann, B Dreher - Experimental Brain Research, 1973 - Springer
The spatial organisation of the excitatory regions of 54 receptive fields from cells in the cat's
superior colliculus was studied. Rectangular light bars, dark bars and single contrast …
