Divergent phenotypes of vision and accessory visual function in mice with visual cycle dysfunction (Rpe65 rd12) or retinal degeneration (rd/rd)Stewart Thompson
Department of Cell and Systems Biology, The University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 49:2737-42. 2008..A novel assay of vision was used to determine how the form and extent of retinal disease affects visual phenotype in mice...
Visual function testing: a quantifiable visually guided behavior in miceStewart Thompson
Howard Hughes Medical Institute and The Carver Family Center for Macular Degeneration, Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, 4111 MERF, 375 Newton Road, The University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA
Vision Res 48:346-52. 2008..This suggests that where visual guidance is performance enhancing but not essential, loss of the contribution of visual guidance to the tasks might be compensated for by experience or training...
Classical and melanopsin photoreception in irradiance detection: negative masking of locomotor activity by lightStewart Thompson
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242, USA
Eur J Neurosci 27:1973-9. 2008..Together the evidence demonstrates a pronounced and sustained classical photoreceptor input to irradiance detection for negative masking, and suggests one role of classical photoreceptor input is to constrain dynamic range...

Light aversion in mice depends on nonimage-forming irradiance detectionStewart Thompson
Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences and The Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA
Behav Neurosci 124:821-7. 2010..Further, the differing effects of disease suggest that negative masking and light aversion are distinct responses with specialized nonimage-forming irradiance detection pathways...

Nuffield Laboratory of Ophthalmology, The John Radcliffe Hospital, Headley Way, University of Oxford, Roosevelt Drive, Oxford OX3 9DU, UK
Eur J Neurosci 28:724-9. 2008..Surprisingly, this irradiance detection response is dependent upon rod and cone photoreceptors, with no apparent contribution from melanopsin pRGCs...
