10 Spatial updating or remapping The brain combines visual and corollary discharge signals to create a representation of space that takes our eye movements into account

11 LIP Summary Area LIP neurons encode attended spatial locations.

12 LIP Summary Area LIP neurons encode attended spatial locations. The spatial representation of an attended location is remapped when the eyes move.

13 LIP Summary Area LIP neurons encode attended spatial locations. The spatial representation of an attended location is remapped when the eyes move. Remapping is initiated by a corollary discharge of the eye movement command.

14 LIP Summary Area LIP neurons encode attended spatial locations. The spatial representation of an attended location is remapped when the eyes move. Remapping is initiated by a corollary discharge of the eye movement command. Remapping produces a representation that is oculocentric: a location is represented in the coordinates of the movement needed to acquire the location.

15 LIP Summary Area LIP neurons encode attended spatial locations. The spatial representation of an attended location is remapped when the eyes move. Remapping is initiated by a corollary discharge of the eye movement command. Remapping produces a representation that is oculocentric: a location is represented in the coordinates of the movement needed to acquire the location. Remapping allows humans and monkeys to perform a spatial memory task accurately.

23 Extrastriate Summary Remapping occurs at early stages of the visual hierarchy. Corollary discharge has an impact far back into the system.

24 Extrastriate Summary Remapping occurs at early stages of the visual hierarchy. Corollary discharge has an impact far back into the system. Remapping implies widespread connectivity in which many neurons have rapid access to information well beyond the classical receptive field.

28 What is the brain circuit that produces remapping?

29 The obvious pathway for visual signals: forebrain commissures

43 Are the forebrain commissures necessary for updating spatial information across the vertical meridian?

44 No. The FC are the primary route but not the only route.

66 Functional Imaging Predictions 1) Robust activation in cortex ipsilateral to the stimulus. 2) Ipsilateral activation should be smaller than the contralateral visual response. 3) It should not be attributable to the stimulus alone or to the saccade alone.

67 Functional Imaging Predictions 1) Robust activation in cortex ipsilateral to the stimulus. 2) Ipsilateral activation should be smaller than the contralateral visual response. 3) It should not be attributable to the stimulus alone or to the saccade alone. 4) Ipsilateral activation should occur around the time of the saccade.
