The photoreceptors in the achromat ... Rod visual fields in cone-rod degeneration. Comparison to retinitis pigmentosa. Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 1990;31:2288–99. Miyake Y, Shiroyama N, Sugita ...

I joined Dr. Kirill Martemyanov’s lab at Scripps Florida in 2015 to study the molecular mechanisms that govern the selective wiring of two types of photoreceptors: rods and cones, which are the ...

Our ability to perceive our visual environment originates at the level of the retina, where light is detected by rod and cone photoreceptors and converted into an electrical signal. This signal ...

This change is accompanied by changes in retinal anatomy, i.e., separation of the photoreceptor presynaptic terminals from the bipolar cell postsynaptic terminals (termed synaptic disjunction in rod ...

There are two types of photoreceptors: rods, which are sensitive to light and dark, and cones, which are sensitive to color. Cones are further divided into three types, each responding to a ...

In wild-type, retinal ganglion cell layer (GCL), inner nuclear layer (INL), inner plexiform layer (IPL), and nuclear layers of rod and cone photoreceptors are distinct, and rod outer segment (OS ...

These cells are called ‘photoreceptors’. There are two types of photoreceptors. ‘Rods’ are the most common type. They are used in peripheral (side) vision and help us see when light levels are low ...

Specifically, we study visual and olfactory transductions, which are the processes by which the senses of vision and olfaction are initiated. Rods and cones are the retinal photoreceptors that absorb ...

Book Abstract: This milestone interdisciplinary work brings you to the cutting edge of emerging technologies inspired by human sight, ranging from semiconductor photoreceptors based on novel organic .
