An excitatory amacrine cell detects object motion and provides feature-selective input to ganglion cells in the mouse retina

Retinal circuits detect salient features of the visual world and report them to the brain through spike trains of retinal ganglion cells. The most abundant ganglion cell type in mice, the so-called W3 ganglion cell, selectively responds to movements of small objects. Where and how object motion sens...
