In the visual system, peripheral processing circuits are often tuned to specific stimulus
features. How this selectivity arises and how these circuits are organized to inform specific …

Visual motion cues are used by many animals to guide navigation across a wide range of
environments. Long-standing theoretical models have made predictions about the …

Detecting the orientation and movement of edges in a scene is critical to visually guided
behaviors of many animals. What are the circuit algorithms that allow the brain to extract …

The detection of visual motion enables sophisticated animal navigation, and studies on flies
have provided profound insights into the cellular and circuit bases of this neural …

Motion vision is an ancient faculty, critical to many animals in a range of ethological contexts,
the underlying algorithms of which provide central insights into neural computation …

Visual systems extract multiple features from a scene using parallel neural circuits.
Ultimately, the separate neural signals must come together to coherently influence action …

Visual motion perception is critical to many animal behaviors, and flies have emerged as a
powerful model system for exploring this fundamental neural computation. Although …

Across animal phyla, motion vision relies on neurons that respond preferentially to stimuli
moving in one, preferred direction over the opposite, null direction. In the elementary motion …

How neurons become sensitive to the direction of visual motion represents a classic
example of neural computation. Two alternative mechanisms have been discussed in the …

Vision influences behavior, but ongoing behavior also modulates vision in animals ranging
from insects to primates. The function and biophysical mechanisms of most such …
