| Abstract |
In this chapter, we discuss the effects of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) inactivation of the pulvinar on the electrophysiological responses to visual stimuli. A direct way to access the pulvinar-cortical interaction is to pharmacologically inactivate the pulvinar and measure the impact on cortical activity. To this aim, we have focused our efforts on recording in cortical visual area V2 while inactivating the topographically corresponding region of the pulvinar. |
