Induction of visual orientation modules in auditory cortex

Article Abstract:

The routing of visual inputs to auditory cortex prompts sharp orientation selectivity in rewired Al. Horizontal connections in rewired A1 are similar to V1 connections in their mediolateral anisotropy.

Visual behaviour mediated by retinal projections directed to the auditory pathway

Article Abstract:

Sensory afferents act during development to instruct their cortical target as to its final function. Cross-modal projection and its representation in auditory cortex can mediate visual behaviour.

Foci of orientation plasticity in visual cortex

Article Abstract:

Research into cortical neuron responses is described. It is shown that short-term plasticity can be induced in neurons in the cat striate cortex by adapting them to a fixed orientation stimulus.
