Biophysical Basis of the in vivo Electroretinogram of the Mouse: 4-Shell Current Source Density Model

Gabriel Peinado, Ratheesh Kumar, Vincent Yao, David John Calkins, Paul FitzGerald, William E. Schiesser, Edward N. Pugh

The paper develops a 4-shell current source density model to explain the biophysical basis of the in vivo electroretinogram in mice, showing it better explains ERG waveforms than the classic Rodieck-Ford model.
