1/ Our new preprint provides insights into the amazing complexity of retinal architecture, highlighting how distinct features of the first inhibitory interneuron of the 🐭 visual system are tailored to the visual environment. #warpedretina
The first interneuron of the mouse visual system is tailored to the natural environment through morphology and electrical coupling biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor… #biorxiv_neursci

3/ Our findings suggest that horizontal cells align the spatial structure of receptive fields in postsynaptic neurons with the visual scene properties from ground to sky.

How are neurons activated by sensory stimuli? For the past century, the only method for addressing this question has been neurophysiology.

Monday I'll be giving an online talk titled: "The melanopsin mosaic: exploring the diversity of non-image forming retinal ganglion cells". Come and learn about regional specializations of retinal neurons. @worldwideneuro world-wide.org/seminar/9594

Student2 performed countless recordings to hit a displaced cell located in the proper spot on the array. Reviewers, *please* choose words wisely when you think results are inconclusive. Otherwise your comments can be devastating after students have invested years of hard work 🙏

Main findings are fantastic. But the concentration along the horizontal midline is a neat little feature, too, which I hope is getting enough attention 🙂

Yes. And it’s called saving lives.
Is the German public aware of this?
