Object identity determines trans-saccadic integration

Michael Herzog, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer

Humans make two to four rapid eye movements (saccades) per second, which, surprisingly, does not lead to abrupt changes in vision. To the contrary, we perceive a stable world. Hence, an important question is how information is integrated across saccades. T ...

Single particle cryo‐EM of the complex between interphotoreceptor retinoid‐binding protein and a monoclonal antibody

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

Interphotoreceptor retinoid‐binding protein (IRBP) is a highly expressed protein secreted by rod and cone photoreceptors that has major roles in photoreceptor homeostasis as well as retinoid and polyunsaturated fatty acid transport between the neural retin ...

Single-cell transcriptional logic of cell-fate specification and axon guidance in early-born retinal neurons

Gioele La Manno, Marion Leleu

Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), cone photoreceptors (cones), horizontal cells and amacrine cells are the first classes of neurons produced in the retina. However, an important question is how this diversity of cell states is transcriptionally produced. Here ...

Capacitive-like photovoltaic epiretinal stimulation enhances and narrows the network-mediated activity of retinal ganglion cells by recruiting the lateral inhibitory network

Diego Ghezzi, Marta Jole Ildelfonsa Airaghi Leccardi, Naïg Aurelia Ludmilla Chenais

Photovoltaic retinal prostheses theoretically offer the possibility of a standalone high-resolution electrical stimulation of the retina. However, achieving focused epiretinal stimulation is particularly challenging, because of axonal activation and electr ...

Beyond Bouma's window: How to explain global aspects of crowding?

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Alban Bornet, Aaron Michael Clarke

In crowding, perception of an object deteriorates in the presence of nearby elements. Although crowding is a ubiquitous phenomenon, since elements are rarely seen in isolation, to date there exists no consensus on how to model it. Previous experiments show ...

Spatially selective activation of the visual cortex via intraneural stimulation of the optic nerve

Silvestro Micera, Diego Ghezzi, Fiorenzo Artoni, Paola Vagni, Vivien Gaillet

Retinal prostheses can restore a functional form of vision in patients affected by dystrophies of the outer retinal layer. Beyond clinical utility, prostheses for the stimulation of the optic nerve, the visual thalamus or the visual cortex could also serve ...

Gene Editing Preserves Visual Functions in a Mouse Model of Retinal Degeneration

Diego Ghezzi, Naïg Aurelia Ludmilla Chenais, Paola Vagni

Inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs) are a large and heterogeneous group of degenerative diseases caused by mutations in various genes. Given the favorable anatomical and immunological characteristics of the eye, gene therapy holds great potential for thei ...

Multilevel regulation of the glass locus during Drosophila eye development

Bart Deplancke, Michael Vincent Frochaux

Development of eye tissue is initiated by a conserved set of transcription factors termed retinal determination network (RDN). In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, the zinc-finger transcription factor Glass acts directly downstream of the RDN to contr ...

A design methodology for charge-balanced stimulators based on anodic current variation monitoring

Alexandre Schmid, Reza Ranjandish

Charge balancing is a major safety concern in neural and functional electrical stimulation. This paper presents a novel and safe active charge balancing design methodology in which, after each cathodic and anodic stimulation pulse, the value of the remaini ...
