The paper analyzes retinal population codes in natural scenes to show that stimulus-invariant population structure contributes to scene identity encoding.

This study investigates the role of the indirect pathway in choice suppression using chemogenetic manipulation in mice, finding that activation, not inhibition, of iSPNs disrupts suppression of nonrewarded choices.

The paper uses a U-net architecture to learn a low-dimensional, generalizable representation of time in natural scenes from retinal ganglion cell activity, achieving 17 ms resolution across different movies.
