Beschreibung:
The detection and correct interpretation of motion in visual scenes is important in everyday tasks, e.g., for avoiding cars when crossing the street or for assessing the optic flow, induced by self-motion, when navigating through a room. The processing of visual motion starts in the retina where specialized neural circuits integrate the incoming signals and extract relevant features. Retinal ganglion cells, the output neurons of the retina, send the processed information to downstream brain areas. Here, the retinal coding of motion signals was studied in the salamander, a widely used model ...
