Motor functions of the superior colliculus

NJ Gandhi, HA Katnani - Annual review of neuroscience, 2011 - annualreviews.org
The mammalian superior colliculus (SC) and its nonmammalian homolog, the optic tectum,
constitute a major node in processing sensory information, incorporating cognitive factors, …

Comparison of saccades perturbed by stimulation of the rostral superior colliculus, the caudal superior colliculus, and the omnipause neuron region

NJ Gandhi, EL Keller - Journal of Neurophysiology, 1999 - journals.physiology.org
Over the past decade, considerable research efforts have been focused on the role of the
rostral superior colliculus (SC) in control of saccades. The most recent theory separates the …

Instantaneous midbrain control of saccade velocity

…, UK Jagadisan, NJ Gandhi - Journal of …, 2018 - Soc Neuroscience
The ability to interact with our environment requires the brain to transform spatially represented
sensory signals into temporally encoded motor commands for appropriate control of the …

Role of the primate superior colliculus in the control of head movements

…, B Bechara, NJ Gandhi - Journal of …, 2007 - journals.physiology.org
One important behavioral role for head movements is to assist in the redirection of gaze.
However, primates also frequently make head movements that do not involve changes in the …

Rapid input-output transformation between local field potential and spiking activity during sensation but not action in the superior colliculus

C Bourrelly, C Massot, NJ Gandhi - Journal of Neuroscience, 2023 - Soc Neuroscience
Sensorimotor transformation is the sequential process of registering a sensory signal in the
environment and then responding with the relevant movement at an appropriate time. For …

…, C Bourrelly, NJ Gandhi - Proceedings of the …, 2023 - National Acad Sciences
Sensorimotor transformation is the process of first sensing an object in the environment and
then producing a movement in response to that stimulus. For visually guided saccades, …

Real-time data acquisition and control system for the measurement of motor and neural data

CL Bryant, NJ Gandhi - Journal of neuroscience methods, 2005 - Elsevier
This paper outlines a powerful, yet flexible real-time data acquisition and control system for
