A key component of the flexibility and complexity of the brain is its ability to dynamically
adapt its functional network structure between integrated and segregated brain states …

Extracellular recordings were made from 642 units in the primary visual cortex (V1) of a
highly visual marsupial, the Tammar wallaby. The receptive field (RF) characteristics of the …

In primates including humans, most retinal ganglion cells send signals to the lateral
geniculate nucleus (LGN) of the thalamus. The anatomical and functional properties of the …

Visual stimuli can evoke waves of neural activity that propagate across the surface of visual
cortical areas. The relevance of these waves for visual processing is unknown. Here, we …

Traditionally, the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) and the inferior pulvinar (IPul)
nucleus are considered as anatomically and functionally distinct thalamic nuclei. However …

The thalamic dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) serves as a gating station for the
transfer of light information en route to the primary visual cortex (V1). Although the …

The present study compares the cortical local field potentials (LFPs) in the primary motor
cortex (M1) and the supplementary motor area (SMA) of non-human primates rendered …

Orexins (OXA, OXB) are hypothalamic peptides playing crucial roles in arousal, feeding,
social and reward-related behaviours. A recent study on juvenile rats suggested their …

Unlike the exhaustive determination of cell types in the retina, key populations in the lateral
geniculate nucleus of the thalamus (LGN) may have been missed. Here, we have begun to …

We have studied brain connectivity using a biologically inspired in silico model of the visual
pathway consisting of the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) of the thalamus, and layers 4 and …
