The structure of visual receptive fields of cat's pulvinar neurons.
Receptive fields of 382 neurons in the pulvinar were investigated. The observed receptive fields were classified according to the neurons responses to stationary flashing light spots positioned in different parts of the receptive field. New receptive field types with multiple discharge centers were observed. Neurons with these receptive fields generally responded with multimodal discharges to ...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal profiles of receptive fields of neurons in the lateral posterior nucleus of the cat LP-pulvinar complex.
The pulvinar is the largest extrageniculate thalamic visual nucleus in mammals. It establishes reciprocal connections with virtually all visual cortexes and likely plays a role in transthalamic cortico-cortical communication. In cats, the lateral posterior nucleus (LP) of the LP-pulvinar complex can be subdivided in two subregions, the lateral (LPl) and medial (LPm) parts, which receive a predo...

متن کاملSpatiotemporal structure of visual receptive fields in macaque superior colliculus.
Saccades are useful for directing the high-acuity fovea to visual targets that are of behavioral relevance. The selection of visual targets for eye movements involves the superior colliculus (SC), where many neurons respond to visual stimuli. Many of these neurons are also activated before and during saccades of specific directions and amplitudes. Although the role of the SC in controlling eye ...
متن کاملVisual receptive fields in the striate-recipient zone of the lateral posterior-pulvinar complex.
The lateral posterior (LP)-pulvinar complex of the cat is known to contain multiple visual areas. In the present study, we examined the receptive field properties of single neurons isolated in the lateral division of this complex (the LPI). The LPI is designated the striate-recipient zone because it is the only region of the LP-pulvinar receiving cortical projections from areas 17 and 18. The r...
