The paper shows that mouse optic tract axons lack fine-scale retinotopy, maintaining only coarse topographic structure.

The paper identifies that histaminergic projections reduce visual response gain and slow processing in the retina and lateral geniculate nucleus of awake mice, without affecting pupil dynamics or locomotion.

This study compares retinal output in awake, anesthetized, and ex vivo mice, finding faster kinetics, larger dynamic range, and higher firing rates in awake retinas, suggesting dense coding in vivo.
