Facilitation of neural responses to targets moving against optic flow

2020-06-29

Abstract excerpt

For the human observer, it can be difficult to follow the motion of small objects, especially when they move against background clutter. In contrast, insects efficiently do this, as evidenced by their ability to capture prey, pursue conspecifics, or defend territories, even in highly textured surrounds. We here recorded from target selective descending neurons (TSDNs) which likely subserve these impressive behavio...
