Spatial organization of visuomotor reflexes in Drosophila.
In most animals, the visual system plays a central role in locomotor guidance. Here, we examined the functional organization of visuomotor reflexes in the fruit fly, Drosophila, using an electronic flight simulator. Flies exhibit powerful avoidance responses to visual expansion centered laterally. The amplitude of these expansion responses is three times larger than those generated by image rot...
متن کاملThe Cellular Organization of Zebrafish Visuomotor Circuits
Week-old zebrafish execute many complex, visually guided actions using a brain that displays the canonical vertebrate organization, but is less than a cubic millimeter in size. Recent studies have made considerable progress towards understanding the underlying neural circuit basis of these innate responses, at two fundamental levels. Large-scale population recordings have revealed how functiona...
متن کاملVisuomotor Origins of Covert Spatial Attention
Covert spatial attention produces biases in perceptual performance and neural processing of behaviorally relevant stimuli in the absence of overt orienting movements. The neural mechanism that gives rise to these effects is poorly understood. This paper surveys past evidence of a relationship between oculomotor control and visual spatial attention and more recent evidence of a causal link betwe...
متن کاملCortical organization of sensory corrections in visuomotor skill acquisition.
During sensorimotor skill acquisition, early learning of the required neuromuscular pattern and sensorimotor mappings is followed by an intermediate stage of gradually increasing consistency and efficiency of execution, which gives way, with persistent practice, to the later stages of automatization. It has been suggested that the intermediate stage is distinguished by refinements in the backgr...
متن کاملThe synergistic organization of muscle recruitment constrains visuomotor adaptation.
Reaching to visual targets engages the nervous system in a series of transformations between sensory information and motor commands. That which remains to be determined is the extent to which the processes that mediate sensorimotor adaptation to novel environments engage neural circuits that represent the required movement in joint-based or muscle-based coordinate systems. We sought to establis...
