Activation of specific interneurons improves V1 feature selectivity and visual perception

Activation of specific interneurons improves V1 feature selectivity and visual perception

Inhibitory interneurons are essential components of the neural circuits underlying various brain functions. In the neocortex, a large diversity of GABA (γ-aminobutyric acid) interneurons has been identified on the basis of their morphology, molecular markers, biophysical properties and innervation p...
