We have previously documented the exquisite motion sensitivity of neurons in extrastriate
area MT by studying the relationship between their responses and the direction and strength …

We recorded the responses of single neurons in extrastriate area MST while rhesus monkeys
discriminated the direction of motion in a set of stochastic visual displays. By varying …

To investigate the importance of feedback loops in visual information processing, we have
analyzed the dynamic aspects of neuronal responses to oriented gratings in cortical area V1 …

The electrophysiological properties of sensory neurons in the adult cortex are not immutable
but can change in response to alterations of sensory input caused by manipulation of …

To localize objects in space, the brain needs to combine information about the position of
the stimulus on the retinae with information about the location of the eyes in their orbits. …

Background Visual, tactile and auditory information is processed from the periphery to the
cortical level through separate channels that target primary sensory cortices, from which it is …

1. Evidence from single-unit recordings suggests that neurons in the medial superior temporal
visual area (MST) carry directional signals that influence psychophysical judgements of …

Accurate binocular depth perception requires information about both stereopsis (relative
depth) and distance (absolute depth). It is unclear how these two types of information are …

1. The influence of viewing distance on disparity selectivity was investigated in area V1 of
behaving monkeys. While the animals performed a fixation task, cortical cells were recorded …

Left and right retinal images of an object seen by the 2 eyes can occupy slightly disparate
horizontal and/or vertical locations. The role of horizontal disparity (HD) in stereoscopic vision …
