Retinal circuits transform the pixel representation of photoreceptors into the feature
representations of ganglion cells, whose axons transmit these representations to the brain …

Center-surround antagonism has been used as the canonical model to describe receptive
fields of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) for decades. We describe a newly identified RGC type …

Neurons that release more than one transmitter exist throughout the CNS. Yet, how these
neurons deploy multiple transmitters and shape the function of specific circuits is not well …

Spike trains of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are the sole source of visual information to the
brain; and understanding how the∼ 20 RGC types in mammalian retinae respond to diverse …

Inhibitory interneurons sculpt the outputs of excitatory circuits to expand the dynamic range
of information processing. In mammalian retina,> 30 types of amacrine cells provide lateral …

Our understanding of nervous system function is limited by our ability to identify and
manipulate neuronal subtypes within intact circuits. We show that the Gbx2 CreERT2-IRES …

In mammalian retinae, the first steps in the process of discrimination of color are mediated by
color-opponent neurons that respond with opposite polarity to signals from short (S, blue) …

Amacrine cells are a diverse population of interneurons in the retina that play a critical role
in extracting complex features of the visual world and shaping the receptive fields of retinal …

Purpose.: Retinal amacrine cells (ACs) may make inhibitory chemical synapses and
potentially excitatory gap junctions on ganglion cells (GCs). The total number and subtypes …

There are more than 30 distinct types of mammalian retinal ganglion cells, each sensitive to
different features of the visual environment. In rabbit retina, they can be grouped into four …
