Neural maps Flashcards
Tootell (1986)
Rhesus monkey, more exposed V1. 2-deoxyglucose autoradiography, foveally dominated
Holmes
V1 lesions mapped to visual field
Heubel + Wiesel
Orientation columns, Critical periods.
Merzenich (1968)
remapping after digital amputation in adult macaques.
Makin (2013)
fMRI of amputees with phantom pain- stronger not weaker cortical representations of missing body parts
Penfield (1951)
Stimulation studies revealing motor homunculus
O’Keefe (1971)
place cells in hippocampus
Moser (2014)
high capacity storage of spatial memories - tetrode recordings in behaving mice show spatial firing doesn’t overlap in 11 different locations with nearly identical features.
Frisen (1998)
EphA5 mouse knockout - loss of specificity, overshoot SC.
