Title Color Versus Form: Orientation Tuning of Cytochrome Oxidase (CO) Patches in Macaque Primary Visual Cortex Explored with 100-Microelectrode Recording Arrays
Creator Jonathan Horton; Lawrence Sincich; Daniel Adams; John Economides
Affiliation University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco
Subject Cytochrome Oxidase Patch; Orientation Tuning; Macaque Striate Cortex; Color Vision; Microelectrode Array
Description Livingstone and Hubel reported that cells within CO patches are specialized for processing color, and therefore lack tuning for the orientation of a stimulus. We studied the properties of CO patches by using a 10 x 10 array of microelectrodes mounted onto a miniature chip. This device allows one to record from many neurons simultaneously and permits histological localization of each recording site in the cortex.
