Recent study findings may prove previous estimations of retinal cell communication, low-light vision
Yale School of Medicine researchers outline their findings and the methods of their researcher in an exclusive interview with Optometry Times.
In an exclusive interview with Optometry Times, Yale School of Medicine researchers Yao Xue, PhD; Z. Jimmy Zhou, PhD; and Seunghoon Lee, PhD; and Co-director of the Yale Legacy Tissue Donation Program, Pathology Marcello DiStasio, MD, PhD, discussed findings from their recent groundbreaking research into retinal circuitry, specifically how bipolar cells in the retina process visual information. The study, “A hierarchical electrical synaptic circuit mechanism for integrative parallel visual processing in the retina” published in Neuron, found that information channels in the retina are more integrated than previously thought.
