This study shows that retinal network dysfunction occurs before structural degeneration in severe GUCA1A cone-rod dystrophy, suggesting an early therapeutic window.

This study shows that sildenafil inhibits cone PDE6, altering RGC receptive-field properties by abolishing Off-pathway signaling and reducing high-frequency sensitivity.

This study shows that supplementing aged mice with 24:5n-3, a product of ELOVL2, improves visual function and reduces AMD-related protein accumulation, suggesting ELOVL2 as a therapeutic target for age-related vision loss.

This paper develops and evaluates Deep Learning models for classifying retinal cell types from cross-sectional images, showing improved performance with extended datasets.

This study shows that repeated stress in young mice accelerates retinal aging at the transcriptional and epigenetic levels, highlighting the importance of early intervention for age-related eye diseases.

This study shows that mild traumatic injury to the primary visual cortex in mice leads to loss of inhibitory neurons and long-term visual circuit dysfunction.

The paper shows that visual training enhances responses in the superior colliculus even when the primary visual cortex is inactivated.

The paper develops a novel rabies virus variant for bi-directional optical control and uses it to study the pulvinar's influence on visual cortex in rats.

This study characterizes single-cell visual response properties in two subdivisions of the rat pulvinar, revealing distinct functional differences between them.

The paper investigates projections between the visual cortex and pulvinar nucleus in rats, finding fewer connections to primary visual cortex than to higher visual cortex.

The paper describes oscillatory activity in the superficial layers of the cat’s superior colliculus during spontaneous and visually evoked conditions, identifying two forms of oscillations and their potential mechanisms.
