Description |

"You don't really see with the eye," said Jennifer S. Lund, Ph.D., professor of ophthalmology at the University's John A. Moran Eye Center. "What we see is actually due to the activity of cells in the cerebral cortex, which are stacked like a three-dimensional mosaic with interplay via the feedforward and feedback relays between many cortical areas. |
