The evidence is compelling that the deep layers of the SC are involved in the translation of
sensory signals into motor commands for the control of saccadic eye movements. The deep …

Redirected growth of the optic tract in hamsters with lesions of the midbrain tectum at birth
results in anomalous retinal projections with correlated functional effects; these include a …

The hypothesis that collateral sprouting might be correlated with recovery of function was
tested by a combination of behavioral and anatomical studies. Partial hemisections, sparing …

Anatomical and behavioral consequences were examined following bilateral or unilateral
resections of the presumptive dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in 4 rhesus monkey fetuses at …

Superficial lesions of the superior colliculus produced deficits in form discrimination, while
deeper lesions produced, in addition, an inability to track objects. These two syndromes …

Reports results of 2 experiments with a total of 14 Sprague-Dawley albino, 17 Charles-River
albino, and 8 Long-Evans hooded rats. Ss with lateral hypothalamic damage had severe …

The longest fibers of the main optic tract reach the upper layers of the superior colliculus
(SC) of the midbrain. Destruction of this terminal area in newborn hamsters caused striking …

The commissural connections of the two major cytoarchitectonic fields of the hippocampus
(fields CA1 and CA3) and of the dentate gyrus of the rat have been studied …

SINGLE-CELL receptive-field studies have provided a great deal of data about the
processing of visual information along the retinocortical pathway (15-17, 20). Recently the …

The response of neurons to injury and the ability of the nervous system to regenerate
severed connections are basic neurobiological problems with a scientific history that goes …
