Parvalbumin and somatostatin inhibitory microcircuits perform distinct roles in stereo matching

The paper investigates how parvalbumin and somatostatin inhibitory neurons in the visual cortex process correlated and anti-correlated random dot stereograms, revealing distinct roles in depth perception.

Degraded mapping of disparity tuning in visual cortex explains deficits in binocular depth perception

The paper shows that monocular deprivation in juvenile mice disrupts cortical maps of binocular disparity tuning and impairs depth perception by reducing response reliability in neurons tuned to near disparities.

Interactions between saccades and smooth pursuit eye movements in marmosets

This study investigates how saccades and smooth pursuit eye movements interact in marmosets, finding that saccades enhance pursuit velocity towards the saccade target and increase selectivity in multi-target scenarios.

Mammals achieve common neural coverage of visual scenes using distinct sampling behaviors

The paper shows mammals achieve similar visual coverage by combining saccade rates, receptive field sizes, and V1 neuronal density across species.

Ocular following eye movements in marmosets follow complex motion trajectories

This study examines ocular following eye movements in marmosets to understand motion integration behavior and compares it to known neural mechanisms.
