Two studies in this issue of Neuron apply in vivo functional imaging techniques to map out and record from mouse extrastriate visual cortex. They find that distinct areas show hallmarks of processing for different types of visual input and provide a promising path forward to investigate how complex image analysis is performed in the mouse visual system.
本期《神经元》杂志中的两项研究应用活体功能成像技术对小鼠的外侧视觉皮层进行定位和记录。它们发现不同的区域具有处理不同类型视觉输入的特征,为研究小鼠视觉系统如何进行复杂的图像分析提供了一条有前景的途径。
