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 …

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 …

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 …

Detecting the direction of motion contained in the visual scene is crucial for many behaviors.
However, because single photoreceptors only signal local luminance changes, motion …

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 …

The perception of visual motion is critical for animal navigation, and flies are a prominent
model system for exploring this neural computation. In Drosophila, the T4 cells of the …

Many animals rely on visual motion detection for survival. Motion information is extracted
from spatiotemporal intensity patterns on the retina, a paradigmatic neural computation. A …

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 …

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 …

Visual motion estimation is a canonical neural computation. In Drosophila, recent advances
have identified anatomic and functional circuitry underlying direction-selective computations …
