Neural circuits in the mouse retina support color vision in the upper visual field
Color vision is essential for an animal's survival. It starts in the retina, where signals from
different photoreceptor types are locally compared by neural circuits. Mice, like most …

A tale of two retinal domains: near-optimal sampling of achromatic contrasts in natural scenes through asymmetric photoreceptor distribution
T Baden, T Schubert, L Chang, T Wei, M Zaichuk… - Neuron, 2013 - cell.com
For efficient coding, sensory systems need to adapt to the distribution of signals to which
they are exposed. In vision, natural scenes above and below the horizon differ in the …
