Fast and slow contrast adaptation in retinal circuitry
The visual system adapts to the magnitude of intensity fluctuations, and this process begins
in the retina. Following the switch from a low-contrast environment to one of high contrast …

Dynamic predictive coding by the retina
Retinal ganglion cells convey the visual image from the eye to the brain. They generally
encode local differences in space and changes in time rather than the raw image intensity …

Mapping a complete neural population in the retina
Recording simultaneously from essentially all of the relevant neurons in a local circuit is
crucial to understand how they collectively represent information. Here we show that the …

Lateral inhibition in the inner retina is important for spatial tuning of ganglion cells
PB Cook, JS McReynolds - Nature neuroscience, 1998 - nature.com
The center–surround receptive-field organization in retinal ganglion cells is widely believed
to result mainly from lateral inhibition at the first synaptic level (in the outer retina). Inhibition …
