VIP neurons are selective for
|
direction, speed, orientation
some are selective for distance especially near |
|
Are VIP neurons bimodal or unimodal
|
all are bimodal
|
|
Somatosensory and visual RF of VIP neurons match in
|
size, location, direction preference
|
|
what do foveal visual RF's match
|
mouth somatosensory RF's
|
|
Ultranear neurons
|
could signal stimuli that can be acquired by reaching with mouth
|
|
Trajectory neurons
|
selective for anticipated point of contact and operate in head centered coordinate
|
|
VIP lesion
|
impairs ability to reach with mouth
|
|
VIP neurons can have RFs that include
|
hand and face
|
|
What is the possible role of VIP neurons
|
may have a special role in hand, eye and mouth coordination, may encode targets in terms of how they can be acquired by reaching with mouth
|
|
Describe MIP neurons
|
bimodal, visual and somatosensory
|
|
Multiple sensory and motor signals that can be carried by MIP neurons
|
1. visual - sight of target and sight of hand
2. somatosensory - cutaneous and proprioceptive 3. hand movement - reachning and grasping 4. eye movement - saccade to target and tracking of hand |
|
Visual responses are modulated by
|
motor intention
|
|
Modification of visual receptive fields
|
is rapid, implies that connections are there all along
|
|
AIP neurons are involved in
|
sensory to motor transformations necessary for hand manipulation
|
|
Primary evidence is
|
AIP neurons selectivity for specific objects across different conditions - manipulation in light, dark, vision of object
|
|
5 types of AIP neurons
|
motor dominant, visual and motor (object or non-object), and visual dominant (object or non-object)
|
|
Motor neurons encode
|
hand action associated with object
|
|
Non object type visual and V V+M neurons represent
|
spatial characteristics of movement, including sight of hand movement
|
|
Object type visual and V+M neurons represent
|
spatial characteristics of object
|
|
Object type V+M neurons
|
help match hand movement to spatial characteristics of object to be manipulated
