Visual Cortex: Suppression by Depression? [PDF]
Current Biology, 2002 The response of a neuron in the visual cortex to an oriented light bar is strongly reduced by concurrent presentation of a stimulus with a different orientation. New data suggest this 'cross-orientation suppression' is caused, not by intracortical inhibition, but by rapid depression of thalamocortical synapses.

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Recent evidence indicates that inhibition within the visual cortex is greater in older than young adults. Increased inhibition has been associated with reduced visual cortex plasticity in animal models.

Magnetic Suppression of Perceptual Accuracy Is Not Reduced in Visual Snow Syndrome
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 Objective: Patients with visual snow syndrome (VSS) suffer from continuous (“TV snow-like”) visual disturbance of unknown pathoetiology. In VSS, changes in cortical excitability in the primary visual cortex and the visual association cortex are discussed,

Visual categorization and the parietal cortex [PDF]
Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2012 The primate brain is adept at rapidly grouping items and events into functional classes, or categories, in order to recognize the significance of stimuli and guide behavior. Higher cognitive functions have traditionally been considered the domain of frontal areas.

Frontal cortex selects representations of the talker’s mouth to aid in speech perception
eLife, 2018 Human faces contain multiple sources of information. During speech perception, visual information from the talker’s mouth is integrated with auditory information from the talker's voice.

Traveling Waves in Visual Cortex [PDF]
Neuron, 2012 Electrode recordings and imaging studies have revealed that localized visual stimuli elicit waves of activity that travel across primary visual cortex. Traveling waves are present also during spontaneous activity, but they can be greatly reduced by widespread and intensive visual stimulation.

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023 IntroductionThe visual cortex is a key region in the mouse brain, responsible for processing visual information. Comprised of six distinct layers, each with unique neuronal types and connections, the visual cortex exhibits diverse decoding properties ...

Neural Plasticity, 2016 Cochlear implant (CI) users show higher auditory-evoked activations in visual cortex and higher visual-evoked activation in auditory cortex compared to normal hearing (NH) controls, reflecting functional reorganization of both visual and auditory ...

Characterization of primary visual cortex input to specific cell types in the superior colliculus
Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2023 The superior colliculus is a critical brain region involved in processing visual information. It receives visual input directly from the retina, as well as via a projection from primary visual cortex. Here we determine which cell types in the superficial

Neural Pathways Conveying Novisual Information to the Visual Cortex
Neural Plasticity, 2013 The visual cortex has been traditionally considered as a stimulus-driven, unimodal system with a hierarchical organization. However, recent animal and human studies have shown that the visual cortex responds to non-visual stimuli, especially in ...
