Garcia-Marin V, Kelly J, Hawken M
Cereb Cortex . 2024 Jan; 34(2). PMID: 38183210
The neuronal composition of homologous brain regions in different primates is important for understanding their processing capacities. Primary visual cortex (V1) has been widely studied in different members of the...

Hawken M, Shapley R, Disney A, Garcia-Marin V, Henrie A, Henry C, et al.
J Neurosci . 2020 Feb; 40(12):2445-2457. PMID: 32041896
Layer 6 appears to perform a very important role in the function of macaque primary visual cortex, V1, but not enough is understood about the functional characteristics of neurons in...

Kelly J, Garcia-Marin V, Rudy B, Hawken M
Cereb Cortex . 2018 Apr; 29(5):1921-1937. PMID: 29668858
The Kv3.1b potassium channel subunit is associated with narrow spike widths and fast-spiking properties. In macaque primary visual cortex (V1), subsets of neurons have previously been found to be Kv3.1b-immunoreactive...

Garcia-Marin V, Kelly J, Hawken M
Cereb Cortex . 2017 Dec; 29(1):134-149. PMID: 29190326
One of the underlying principles of how mammalian circuits are constructed is the relative influence of feedforward to recurrent synaptic drive. It has been dogma in sensory systems that the...

Shooner C, Hallum L, Kumbhani R, Garcia-Marin V, Kelly J, Majaj N, et al.
J Neurosci . 2017 Aug; 37(36):8734-8741. PMID: 28760867
In amblyopia, abnormal visual experience leads to an extreme form of eye dominance, in which vision through the nondominant eye is degraded. A key aspect of this disorder is perceptual...

Hallum L, Shooner C, Kumbhani R, Kelly J, Garcia-Marin V, Majaj N, et al.
J Neurosci . 2017 Jul; 37(34):8216-8226. PMID: 28743725
In amblyopia, a visual disorder caused by abnormal visual experience during development, the amblyopic eye (AE) loses visual sensitivity whereas the fellow eye (FE) is largely unaffected. Binocular vision in...

Shooner C, Hallum L, Kumbhani R, Ziemba C, Garcia-Marin V, Kelly J, et al.
Vision Res . 2015 Feb; 114:56-67. PMID: 25637856
Amblyopia is a developmental disorder resulting in poor vision in one eye. The mechanism by which input to the affected eye is prevented from reaching the level of awareness remains...

Garcia-Marin V, Sundiang M, Hawken M
Brain Struct Funct . 2014 Jul; 220(5):2783-96. PMID: 25009312
The S-cone system is closely linked to the perception of blue/yellow. The trichromatic system of Old-World monkeys and humans has relatively few S-cones in the fovea. In this study, we...

Garcia-Marin V, Ahmed T, Afzal Y, Hawken M
J Comp Neurol . 2012 Jun; 521(1):130-51. PMID: 22684983
The majority of thalamic terminals in V1 arise from lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) afferents. Thalamic afferent terminals are preferentially labeled by an isoform of the vesicular glutamate transporter, VGluT2. The...

Blazquez-Llorca L, Garcia-Marin V, Merino-Serrais P, Avila J, DeFelipe J
J Alzheimers Dis . 2011 Jun; 26(4):683-98. PMID: 21677375
A key symptom in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the loss of declarative memory. The anatomical substrate that supports this kind of memory involves the neural circuits...
