Surgically created neural pathways mediate visual pattern discrimination
Surgically created neural pathways mediate visual pattern discrimination is a scholarly work, published in 2000 in ''Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America''. The main subjects of the publication include visual system, biology, cortex, lateral geniculate nucleus, retina, neuroscience, visual cortex, auditory cortex, visual perception, anatomy, retinal, neural substrate, thalamus, and somatosensory system. The authors showed that both surgically induced pathways can mediate visually guided behaviors whose normal substrate, the pathway from the retina to the primary visual cortex via the primary thalamic visual nucleus, is missing..
