A Pixel-Encoder Retinal Ganglion Cell with Spatially Offset Excitatory and Inhibitory Receptive Fields
Summary: The spike trains of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are the only source of visual information to the brain.Here, we genetically identify an RGC type in mice that functions as a pixel rock cliff reservoir encoder and increases firing to light increments (PixON-RGC).PixON-RGCs have medium-sized dendritic arbors and non-canonical center-surroun
