  • Title: Lagged cells in alert monkey lateral geniculate nucleus.
    Author: Saul AB.
    Journal: Vis Neurosci; 2008; 25(5-6):647-59. PubMed ID: 19000330.
    Abstract:
    Five lagged cells were recognized by extracellular recording in the lateral geniculate nucleus of an awake, behaving macaque monkey. Previous reports of lagged cells were all in the anesthetized cat. Both parvocellular and magnocellular lagged cells were observed. Response timing was distributed continuously across the population, and both sustained and transient responses were seen in the magnocellular subpopulation. Cortex thus receives signals with a wide range of timing, which can mediate direction selectivity across multiple dimensions.
