Context-dependent motion processing in the retina

Abstract
A critical function of sensory systems is to reliably extract ethologically relevant features from the complex natural environment. A classic model to study feature detection is the direction-selective circuit of the mammalian retina. In this talk, I will discuss our recent work on how visual contexts dynamically influence the neural processing of motion signals in the direction-selective circuit in the mouse retina.
