Retinal origin of orientation maps in visual cortex
The orientation map is a hallmark of primary visual cortex in higher mammals. It is not yet known how orientation maps develop, what function they play in visual processing and why some species lack them. Here we advance the notion that quasi-periodic orientation maps are established by moiré interf...
