Retinotopic map refinement occurs in downstream visual targets in the brain-the superior colliculus ( SC ) and dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus ( LGN ).
22.
The ventrolateral geniculate nucleus has been found to be relatively large in several species such as lizards, rodents, cows, cats, and primates.
23.
Receptive fields of cells in the visual cortex are larger and have more-complex stimulus requirements than retinal ganglion cells or lateral geniculate nucleus cells.
24.
Visual information coming from the eye, goes through the lateral geniculate nucleus, that is located in the thalamus, and then reaches the visual cortex.
25.
Dennis Dacey with colleagues showed in a species of Old World monkey that giant ganglion cells expressing melanopsin projected to the lateral geniculate nucleus ( LGN ).

27.
The STA has been used to characterize retinal ganglion cells, neurons in the lateral geniculate nucleus and simple cells in the striate cortex ( V1 ).
28.
According to the study done by Schmid et al ., " thalamic lateral geniculate nucleus has a causal role in V1-independent processing of visual information ".
29.
After the optic chiasma the visual tracts are referred to as the optic tracts, which enter the thalamus to synapse at the lateral geniculate nucleus ( LGN ).
30.
In the development of mammalian visual system, axons from each eyes crosses through the lateral geniculate nucleus ( LGN ) and terminate in separate layers of striate cortex.
