This study shows that parvalbumin-expressing interneurons in primate V1 improve sensory discrimination by altering noise geometry without increasing signal magnitude.

The paper examines how visual stimulus size modulates neural response variability and shared variability across layers of macaque primary visual cortex, finding layer-specific effects that challenge the idea that surround suppression always reduces variability.

The paper investigates how different layers of primate visual cortex process local and global spatial context through electrophysiological recordings.

This study identifies cellular mechanisms of feedback-mediated modulations in primate visual cortex using optogenetic inactivation and a recurrent network model.
