Developmental changes in GABAergic mechanisms in human visual cortex across the lifespan.

abstract：:Rodents engage in active touch using their facial whiskers: they explore their environment by making rapid back-and-forth movements. The fast nature of whisker movements, during which whiskers often cross each other, makes it notoriously difficult to track individual whiskers of the intact whisker field. We present he...
