Realistic retinal modeling unravels the differential role of excitation and inhibition to starburst amacrine cells in direction selectivity

Retinal direction-selectivity originates in starburst amacrine cells (SACs), which display a centrifugal preference, responding with greater depolarization to a stimulus expanding from soma to dendrites than to a collapsing stimulus. Various mechanisms were hypothesized to underlie SAC centrifugal p...
