7 Amphibian RGCs directly mediate behavioral responses

8 Reporting direction of movement

9 On-Off DS GCs Have 4 Directional Subtypes

10 3-D Reconstruction of DS GC

11 No Overall Dendritic Asymmetry

12 DS Independent of Contrast

13 DS is Independent of Velocity

14 DS Subunits

15 DS GCs exhibit directional hyperauity

16 Anatomical Models

17 Starburst (Cholinergic) Amacrine Cells

18 One Hypothesis suggests asymmetric cholinergic input to account for some DS

19 Borg-Graham & Grzywacz Asymmetric Ach Model

20 Spike Codes: Is rate all that matters?

21 Response Variability

22 Control of Synchrony

23 The Aperture Problem: What is Missing in the Output of One Cell

24 Correlated Firing Encodes Unified Motion in Visual Cortex

25 What is the Computational Importance of Synchronous Firing to the Next Stage?

26 Hypothesis: The Brain Operates at Multiple Levels of Coherence.

27 What Mechanisms Produce Synchronous Firing in Visual Cortex?

28 Synchrony from Ganglion cells?
One Possible Solution: Suppose Close-by Retinal Ganglion Cells Supply a Synchronous Signal for Separated Cells in Higher Centers? Synchrony from Ganglion cells?

29 Ganglion cell Synchrony Questions
Do Retinal Ganglion Cells Fire Synchronously? Does Synchronous Firing Code Anything Interesting? What Retinal Mechanisms Mediate Synchrony? Ganglion cell Synchrony Questions

30 Multielectrode Recording: Flash vs Bar

31 Extended Bar

32 DS Ganglion Cell Responses to Extended Bars vs Flash (& Spot)

33 GABAergic Amacrine Cell Control of Synchrony

34 Spikes in Starburst Amacrine Cells

35 Patch-Clamp Recording

36 Multiple Spike Heights

37 Can Hyperpolarizing Somatic Current Eliminate Spikes Produced by Preferred-Direction Motion?

38 Can Depolarizing Somatic Current Overcome Null-Direction Motion Inhibition?

39 Is Inability to Generate Spikes by Current During Null Motion Due to Fatigue or Active Adaptation?

40 Is Shunting at Soma the Problem?
