A Primary Role for Nucleus Accumbens and Related Limbic Network in Vocal Tics.

abstract：:Mouse vision is based on the parallel output of more than 30 functional types of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Little is known about how representations of visual information change between retina and dorsolateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the thalamus, the main relay between retina and cortex. Here, we functional...
