Ocular dominance columns in strabismusDaniel L Adams
Beckman Vision Center, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143, USA
Vis Neurosci 23:795-805. 2006..In addition, in strabismic monkeys, as in normal animals, patches were not aligned with ocular dominance columns...
A watertight acrylic-free titanium recording chamber for electrophysiology in behaving monkeysDaniel L Adams
Program in Neuroscience, University of California, San Francisco, California 94143 0730, USA
J Neurophysiol 106:1581-90. 2011..Refinement of appliances and techniques used for recordings in awake monkeys promises to increase the pace of scientific discovery and to benefit animal welfare...
Monocular cells without ocular dominance columnsDaniel L Adams
Beckman Vision Center, 10 Koret Way, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, CA 94143 0730, USA
J Neurophysiol 96:2253-64. 2006..Thus even when ocular dominance columns occur in the squirrel monkey, they do not transform the functional architecture to resemble that of the macaque...
A biocompatible titanium headpost for stabilizing behaving monkeysDaniel L Adams
Program in Neuroscience, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143 0730, USA
J Neurophysiol 98:993-1001. 2007..The headpost is simpler to implant, more securely anchored, easier to maintain, and less obtrusive than devices attached with acrylic...
Orientation tuning of cytochrome oxidase patches in macaque primary visual cortexJohn R Economides
Beckman Vision Center, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California, USA
Nat Neurosci 14:1574-80. 2011..This global difference in neuronal responsiveness, rather than an absence of orientation tuning, may account for the rich mitochondrial enzyme activity that defines patches...
Complete pattern of ocular dominance columns in human primary visual cortexDaniel L Adams
Beckman Vision Center, Program in Neuroscience, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143 0730, USA
J Neurosci 27:10391-403. 2007..In one subject, monocular visual loss began at age 4 months, causing shrinkage of ocular dominance columns. In V2, which had a larger surface area than V1, CO stripes were present but could not be classified as thick or thin...
The representation of retinal blood vessels in primate striate cortexDaniel L Adams
Beckman Vision Center, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143 0730, USA
J Neurosci 23:5984-97. 2003..The representations of retinal blood vessels separated by only 0.65 degrees were resolvable in the cortex, yielding an upper limit on cortical resolution of 340 microm in layer 4C...
Ocular motor behavior in macaques with surgical exotropiaJohn R Economides
Beckman Vision Center, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143 0730, USA
J Neurophysiol 98:3411-22. 2007..These animals will be valuable for probing the cortical mechanisms that underlie visual suppression in strabismus...
Transmission of spike trains at the retinogeniculate synapseLawrence C Sincich
Beckman Vision Center, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143, USA
J Neurosci 27:2683-92. 2007..Hence, the timing of EPSPs arising from the primary retinal driver governs synaptic efficacy and provides the basis for successful retinogeniculate transmission...
Shadows cast by retinal blood vessels mapped in primary visual cortexDaniel L Adams
Beckman Vision Center, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, CA 94143 0730, USA
Science 298:572-6. 2002..This process illustrates vividly that local imbalances in neuronal activity can influence column formation during normal development...
A precise retinotopic map of primate striate cortex generated from the representation of angioscotomasDaniel L Adams
Beckman Vision Center, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143 0730, USA
J Neurosci 23:3771-89. 2003..We conclude that, in monkey striate cortex, more tissue is allocated per ganglion cell for the analysis of information emanating from the macula as compared with the peripheral retina...
Capricious expression of cortical columns in the primate brainDaniel L Adams
Beckman Vision Center, University of California at San Francisco, 10 Kirkham Street, San Francisco, California 94143-0730, USA
Nat Neurosci 6:113-4. 2003
Perception via the deviated eye in strabismusJohn R Economides
Beckman Vision Center, Program in Neuroscience, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143 0730, USA
J Neurosci 32:10286-95. 2012..This plasticity in the coding of visual direction allows accurate localization of objects everywhere in the visual scene, despite the presence of strabismus...
The cortical column: a structure without a functionJonathan C Horton
Beckman Vision Center, 10 Koret Way, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143-0730, USA
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci 360:837-62. 2005..Unravelling the organization of the cerebral cortex will require a painstaking description of the circuits, projections and response properties peculiar to cells in each of its various areas...
Complete flatmounting of the macaque cerebral cortexLawrence C Sincich
Beckman Vision Center, University of California-San Francisco, San Francisco 94143-0730, USA
Vis Neurosci 20:663-86. 2003..Flatmounting the cerebral cortex is a simple, efficient method that can be used routinely for mapping areas and connections in the macaque brain, the most widely used primate model of the human brain...
