How Laminar Frontal Cortex and Basal Ganglia Circuits Interact to Control Planned and Reactive Saccades [PDF]
The basal ganglia and frontal cortex together allow animals to learn adaptive responses that acquire rewards when prepotent reflexive responses are insufficient.

(A) PPN‐cholinergic neurons degenerate during PD. We stereologically counted their rostro‐caudal distribution in post‐mortem PPNs in health versus PD. (Bi) Serial PPN‐containing samples were cholinergic antibody‐DAB stained. (Bii) Only DAB‐stained neurons on green lines and inside the box were counted.

Projections to the inferior colliculus from the lateral and medial superior olivary nuclei were studied in the gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus) with neuroanatomical tract-tracing methods. The terminal fields of projecting axons were labeled via anterograde

Frequency Coding of Multisensory Integration in the Local Field Potentials of the Medial Pulvinar
ABSTRACT The pulvinar is a posterior thalamic nucleus, with a heterogeneous anatomo‐functional organization. It is divided into four parts, including the medial pulvinar, which is densely connected with primary unisensory and multisensory cortical regions, and subcortical structures, including the superior colliculus.

The superior colliculus directs goal-oriented forelimb movements
Summary: Skilled forelimb control is essential for daily living, yet our understanding of its neural mechanisms, although extensive, remains incomplete. Here, we present evidence that the superior colliculus (SC), a major midbrain structure, is necessary

Stereological analysis of the vascular network in superior colliculi [PDF]
Background/Aim: Superior colliculi have an important role in the visual system, some motor functions and behaviour. Branches of the posterior cerebral artery and surrounding vessels form a collicular arterial network, which gives rise to several ...

Distribution of melanopsin positive neurons in pigmented and albino mice: evidence for melanopsin interneurons in the mouse retina. [PDF]
Here we have studied the population of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) in adult pigmented and albino mice. Our data show that although pigmented (C57Bl/6) and albino (Swiss) mice have a similar total number of ipRGCs, their ...

How Listing's Law May Emerge from Neural Control of Reactive Saccades [PDF]
We hypothesize that Listing's Law emerges as a result of two key properties of the saccadic sensory-motor system: 1) The visual sensory apparatus has a 2-D topology and 2) motor synergists are synchronized.
