Biophysics of object segmentation in a collision-detecting neuron

2017-11-08

Abstract excerpt

Collision avoidance is critical for survival, including in humans, and many species possess visual neurons exquisitely sensitive to objects approaching on a collision course. The most studied such collision-detecting neuron within the optic lobe of grasshoppers has long served as a model for understanding collision avoidance behaviors and their underlying neural computations. Here, we demonstrate that this neuron...
