Motion sensitivity analysis of retinal ganglion cells in mouse retina using natural visual stimuli
2015
One of the major objectives in functional studies of the retina is the understanding of neural circuits and identification of the function of involved nerve cells. Instead of stimulating the retina with light patterns of simple geometrical shapes, we analyze the response of retinal ganglion cells of mouse retina to a black and white movie containing a natural scenery. By correlating measured spike trains with a metric for the velocity of a visual scene, PV0 cells were found to be direction selective, whereas PV5 cells did not show any sensitivity to motion.
