Circuits and mechanisms for surround modulation in visual cortex
Surround modulation (SM) is a fundamental property of sensory neurons in many species
and sensory modalities. SM is the ability of stimuli in the surround of a neuron's receptive …

What is the dynamical regime of cerebral cortex?
Y Ahmadian, KD Miller - Neuron, 2021 - cell.com
Many studies have shown that the excitation and inhibition received by cortical neurons
remain roughly balanced across many conditions. A key question for understanding the …

The logic of recurrent circuits in the primary visual cortex
Recurrent cortical activity sculpts visual perception by refining, amplifying or suppressing
visual input. However, the rules that govern the influence of recurrent activity remain …

Topography and areal organization of mouse visual cortex
To guide future experiments aimed at understanding the mouse visual system, it is essential
that we have a solid handle on the global topography of visual cortical areas. Ideally, the …

Top-down feedback controls spatial summation and response amplitude in primate visual cortex
Sensory information travels along feedforward connections through a hierarchy of cortical
areas, which, in turn, send feedback connections to lower-order areas. Feedback has been …

Distinguishing externally from saccade-induced motion in visual cortex
SK Miura, M Scanziani - Nature, 2022 - nature.com
Distinguishing sensory stimuli caused by changes in the environment from those caused by
an animal's own actions is a hallmark of sensory processing. Saccades are rapid eye …

Divisive normalization unifies disparate response signatures throughout the human visual hierarchy
Neural processing is hypothesized to apply the same mathematical operations in a variety of
contexts, implementing so-called canonical neural computations. Divisive normalization …

Canonical computations of cerebral cortex
KD Miller - Current opinion in neurobiology, 2016 - Elsevier
The idea that there is a fundamental cortical circuit that performs canonical computations
remains compelling though far from proven. Here we review evidence for two canonical …
