This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "To explain all nature is too difficult a task for anyone man or even for anyone age. Tis much better to do a little with certainty, and leave the rest for others that come after you, than to explain all things ... " Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727) This book describes and discusses some new aspects of col or vision in primates which have emerged from a series of experiments conducted over the past 8 years both on single ganglion cells in monkey retina and on the visually evoked cortical potential in man: corresponding psychophysical mechanisms of human perception will be considered as well. An attempt will be made to better understand the basic mechanisms of color vision using a more comprehensive approach which takes into account new mechanisms found in single cells and relates them to those found valid for the entire visual system. The processing of color signals was followed up from the retina to the visual cortex and to the percepq.tal centers, as far as the available techniques permitted.

Download or read book Form and Function of S-cone Opponent Circuits in the Primate Retina written by Sara Stokes Patterson and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visual information is carried from the retina by the axons of >20 ganglion cell types, which project throughout the brain. While many of these parallel pathways are cone-opponent, not all the color information leaving the retina is used for color perception, as many ganglion cells instead mediate non-image forming visual functions. However, our understanding of how the visual system uses spectral information is currently limited to the most common cone-opponent ganglion cells and their role in color perception. This thesis aims to expand our understanding of both how and why the visual system extracts color information by investigating the diversity S-cone opponent ganglion cells. I investigated the diverse visual functions mediated by color-coding circuits in the macaque parafovea by combining 3D reconstructions of retinal circuits from serial electron microscopy with single cell electrophysiology, computational models and human psychophysics. When the spatial arrangement of cone-opponent inputs is taken into account, this work reveals cone-opponent receptive fields can contribute to a diverse range of visual functions beyond hue perception, such as edge detection and circadian photoentrainment. More generally, the work in this thesis is inconsistent with the standard view of primate vision that emphasizes cortical processing and limits the role of retinal coding to efficient compression and transmission of visual information. Instead, the complexity and diversity of cone-opponent processing reported here indicates that the retina may play a more active role in the computations defining visual perception and behavior.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The retina is the first stage of the visual system, where light is absorbed and encoded in the spikes of neurons. Information from roughly 100 million photoreceptors is compressed to the outputs of roughly 1 million neurons, called retinal ganglion cells, that make up the optic nerve. This is the brain's only source of visual information, yet how the retina uses this limited bandwidth is not well understood. This is particularly true for natural vision in primates, despite its relevance for human health applications, as retinal research is primarily done in non-primate species using targeted, artificial stimuli. Here, large-scale, multi-electrode recordings are used to investigate natural image processing in the primate retina through the complementary lenses of encoding, where computational models are used to predict the responses of RGCs to natural stimuli, and decoding, or reconstruction, where the stimulus is estimated from the RGC responses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conn’s Translational Neuroscience provides a comprehensive overview reflecting the depth and breadth of the field of translational neuroscience, with input from a distinguished panel of basic and clinical investigators. Progress has continued in understanding the brain at the molecular, anatomic, and physiological levels in the years following the 'Decade of the Brain,' with the results providing insight into the underlying basis of many neurological disease processes. This book alternates scientific and clinical chapters that explain the basic science underlying neurological processes and then relates that science to the understanding of neurological disorders and their treatment. Chapters cover disorders of the spinal cord, neuronal migration, the autonomic nervous system, the limbic system, ocular motility, and the basal ganglia, as well as demyelinating disorders, stroke, dementia and abnormalities of cognition, congenital chromosomal and genetic abnormalities, Parkinson's disease, nerve trauma, peripheral neuropathy, aphasias, sleep disorders, and myasthenia gravis. In addition to concise summaries of the most recent biochemical, physiological, anatomical, and behavioral advances, the chapters summarize current findings on neuronal gene expression and protein synthesis at the molecular level. Authoritative and comprehensive, Conn’s Translational Neuroscience provides a fully up-to-date and readily accessible guide to brain functions at the cellular and molecular level, as well as a clear demonstration of their emerging diagnostic and therapeutic importance. Provides a fully up-to-date and readily accessible guide to brain functions at the cellular and molecular level, while also clearly demonstrating their emerging diagnostic and therapeutic importance Features contributions from leading global basic and clinical investigators in the field Provides a great resource for researchers and practitioners interested in the basic science underlying neurological processes Relates and translates the current science to the understanding of neurological disorders and their treatment

This book was released on 2006-04-07 with total page 1033 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long-awaited second edition of an authoritative reference on electrophysiologic vision testing, including detailed information on techniques and problems, basic physiology and anatomy, theoretical concepts, and clinical findings; with extensive new material. This authoritative text is the only comprehensive reference available on electrophysiologic vision testing, offering both practical information on techniques and problems as well as basic physiology and anatomy, theoretical concepts, and clinical correlations. The second edition, of the widely used text, offers extensive new material and updated information: 65 of the 84 chapters are completely new, with the changes reflecting recent advances in the field. The book will continue to be an essential resource for practitioners and scholars from a range of disciplines within vision science. The contributions not only cover new information—important material that is likely to become more important in the next decade—but also offer a long-range perspective on the field and its remarkable development in the last century. After discussing the history and background of clinical electrophysiology, the book introduces the anatomy of the retina and principles of cell biology in the visual pathways at the molecular, physiological, and biochemical levels. It relates these new findings to the techniques and interpretations of clinical tests, including the electro-oculogram (EOG), electroretinogram (ERG), and visual evoked potentials (VEP), which are discussed in detail, as are equipment, data acquisition and analysis, principles and protocols for clinical testing, diseases and dysfunction, and animal testing. Notable additions for this edition include chapters on the origin of electroretinogram waveforms, multifocal techniques, testing in standard laboratory animals, recent advances in analysis of abnormalities in disease, and the applications of these techniques to the study of genetic abnormalities.
