This project investigates the role of melanopsin-expressing retinal ganglion cells in visual perception, challenging the belief that they have minimal impact on vision. By utilizing advanced neurophysiological techniques in mice, the project aims to understand how these cells contribute to visual processing and their p…
It is now >10 years since the remarkable discovery that photoreception in the mammalian retina occurs outside of rod and cone cells.
In that time we have learnt a great deal about the melanopsin expressing retinal ganglion cells (mRGCs) that provide this non-rod non-cone photoreception, and about their extensive contribution to sub-conscious light responses.
However, one idea that has persisted is that these mRGCs play little if any role in visual perception.
Exciting new data challenge that vie…
