Paroxetine can improve primary visual cortex activity in a high-risk mouse model of schizophrenia
Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2020 Visual cortex functional deficits can be observed in schizophrenia patients and in individuals at high risk of schizophrenia. However, to date, few studies have investigated methods to improve these functional deficits.

Amplification of trial-to-trial response variability by neurons in visual cortex [PDF]
, 2004 The visual cortex responds to repeated presentations of the same stimulus with high variability. Because the firing mechanism is remarkably noiseless, the source of this variability is thought to lie in the membrane potential fluctuations that result ...

Retinotopic activation in response to subjective contours in primary visual cortex. [PDF]
, 2008 Objects in our visual environment are arranged in depth and hence there is a considerable amount of overlap and occlusion in the image they generate on the retina.

A survey of architecture and function of the primary visual cortex (V1) [PDF]
, 2006 The largest visual area, known as the primary visual cortex or V1, has greatly contributed to the current understanding of mammalian and human visual pathways and their role in visual perception.

Studying the Role of Human Parietal Cortex in Visuospatial Attention with Concurrent TMS-fMRI [PDF]
, 2010 Combining transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with concurrent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) allows study of how local brain stimulation may causally affect activity in remote brain regions.

Visual perception: Spotlight on the primary visual cortex [PDF]
Current Biology, 1999 Visual search tasks appear to involve spatially selective attention to the target, but evidence for attentional modulation in the visual area with the most precise retinotopic organization V1 has been elusive. Recent imaging studies show that spatial attention can indeed enhance visual responses in human V1.

Spatial biology in cancer epigenetics
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Spatial epigenomics combines molecular profiling with tissue architecture to reveal how gene regulation is organized within intact tissues. In cancer, these technologies uncover the mechanisms driving tumor heterogeneity and microenvironmental interactions, opening new opportunities for biomarker discovery and precision medicine.

Imaging plasticity and structure of cortical maps in cat and mouse visual cortex [PDF]
, 2001 The study reported in the first part of this thesis utilized optical imaging of intrinsic signals to visualize changes in orientation maps in cat visual cortex induced by pairing a visual stimulus with an intracortical electrical stimulation.

High-level visual prediction errors in early visual cortex.
PLoS BiologyPerception is shaped by both incoming sensory input and expectations derived from our prior knowledge. Numerous studies have shown stronger neural activity for surprising inputs, suggestive of predictive processing.
