## Abstract The functions of the visual cortex (VC) were interrupted in anesthetized and paralyzed hooded rats with KCl (3M Baker) applied topically and single unit recordings were performed on lateral geniculate cells. Responses of geniculate cells to diffuse 1 second flashes were tested prior to

## Abstract The response patterns of cells in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus of the albino rat were studied in order to examine the functional organization of the lateral geniculate nucleus. Both photic stimulation and electrical stimulation of the optic tract were used to activate single un
Response properties of neurons in the visual cortex, area 17, of Long Evans pigmented rats were investigated quantitatively with computer-controlled stimuli. Ninety percent of the cells recorded (296/327) were responsive to visual stimulation. The majority (95%, 281/296) responded to moving images a
## Abstract In anesthetized and paralyzed rabbits unitary discharges of lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) were studied after cortical excitation by strychnine and following electrical stimulation of the visual cortex (VC). Results showed that local application of strychnine produced a general increa
