N-Form in V1 of Freely-moving Marmosets

Active gaze behavior organizes V1 activity in freely-moving marmosets

(Preprint)

“Although primate visual cortex has been studied extensively in head-fixed animals, little is known about how the primate visual system supports natural, active vision in freely moving animals. Here, we address this gap in the primary visual cortex (V1) by leveraging a head-mounted eye-tracking system while simultaneously recording the activity of ensembles of single V1 neurons in freely moving marmosets.“

“Neurophysiology. Neural activity was recorded with multi-electrode arrays (N-form, Modular Bionics, Berkeley, CA) chronically implanted in V1.“
