Aging Potentiates Lateral but Not Local Inhibition of Orientation Processing in Primary Visual Cortex

Aging-related declines in vision can decrease well-being of the elderly. Concerning early sensory changes as in the primary visual cortex, physiological and behavioral reports seem contradictory. Neurophysiological studies on orientation tuning properties suggested that neuronal changes might come f...
