To test this, we made high-resolution spatial maps of receptive fields in the developing ferret lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN). Developing receptive fields (RFs), had a variety of shapes ...

Figure 2: Visual processing in V1-lesioned monkeys. Figure 3: Role of the LGN in driving V1-independent visual processing. After we had inactivated the LGN, virtually all extrastriate responses in ...

I specialize in measuring the visual subcortex—the lateral geniculate nucleus, pulvinar and thalamic reticular nucleus in the thalamus, and the superior colliculus—using structural and functional ...
