Mechanisms underlying rule learning-induced enhancement of excitatory and inhibitory synaptic transmission.

abstract：:Anatomical and physiological data have implicated the pretectal olivary nucleus (PON) as the midbrain relay for the pupillary light reflex in a variety of species. To determine the nature of the discharge of pretectal light reflex relay neurons, we recorded their activity in monkeys that were fixating a stationary spo...
