Cell Rep . 2024 Feb; 43(3):113830. PMID: 38386556
Parallel visual pathways from the retina to the primary visual cortex (V1) via the lateral geniculate nucleus are common to many mammalian species, including mice, carnivores, and primates. However, it...

bioRxiv . 2023 Oct; PMID: 37786698
Parallel functional and anatomical visual pathways from the retina to primary visual cortex (V1) via the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) are common to many mammalian species, including mice, carnivores and...

Guttenplan K, Stafford B, El-Danaf R, Adler D, Munch A, Weigel M, et al.
Cell Rep . 2020 Jun; 31(12):107776. PMID: 32579912
Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disease that features the death of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in the retina, often as a result of prolonged increases in intraocular pressure. We show that...

Dhande O, Stafford B, Franke K, El-Danaf R, Percival K, Phan A, et al.
J Neurosci . 2018 Nov; 39(1):78-95. PMID: 30377226
The ability to detect moving objects is an ethologically salient function. Direction-selective neurons have been identified in the retina, thalamus, and cortex of many species, but their homology has remained...

Dhande O, Stafford B, Lim J, Huberman A
Annu Rev Vis Sci . 2017 May; 1:291-328. PMID: 28532372
Every aspect of visual perception and behavior is built from the neural activity of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), the output neurons of the eye. Here, we review progress toward understanding...

Stafford B, Huberman A
Neuron . 2017 Feb; 93(4):717-720. PMID: 28231456
The brain uses sensory information from the periphery to create percepts. In this issue of Neuron, Rompani et al. (2017) show that visual signals are combined in unexpected ways that...

Lim J, Stafford B, Nguyen P, Lien B, Wang C, Zukor K, et al.
Nat Neurosci . 2016 Jul; 19(8):1073-84. PMID: 27399843
Axons in the mammalian CNS fail to regenerate after injury. Here we show that if the activity of mouse retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) is increased by visual stimulation or using...

Osterhout J, Stafford B, Nguyen P, Yoshihara Y, Huberman A
Neuron . 2015 May; 86(4):985-999. PMID: 25959733
The mammalian eye-to-brain pathway includes more than 20 parallel circuits, each consisting of precise long-range connections between specific sets of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and target structures in the brain....

J Physiol . 2014 Sep; 592(22):4877-89. PMID: 25217374
Postsynaptic AMPA- and NMDA-type glutamate receptors (AMPARs, NMDARs) are commonly expressed at the same synapses. AMPARs are thought to mediate the majority of fast excitatory neurotransmission whereas NMDARs, with their...
