Mature retina is resilient to partial photoreceptor loss
Vision Science seminar by Prof Felice Dunn, UCSF
Hosted by Sussex Visions
Recording
Abstract
I will discuss recent findings from our lab about the effects of partial photoreceptor loss on the retinal circuit’s structure and function. I will relate this work to the question of whether the visual system can distinguish between changes in light level and photoreceptor number.
