The brain has evolved to transform sensory information in the environment into neural representations that can be used for perception and action. Higher-order sensory cortical areas, with their increasingly complex receptive fields and integrative properties, are thought to be critical nodes for this function. This is especially true in the primate visual cortex, in which functionally specialized areas are engaged in parallel streams to support diverse computations. Recent anatomical and physiological studies of the mouse visual cortex have revealed a similarly complex network of specialized higher-order areas. This structure provides a useful model for determining the synaptic and circuit mechanisms through which information is transformed across distinct processing stages. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the layout, connectivity, and functional properties of the higher visual areas in the mouse. In addition, we speculate on the contribution of these areas to perception and action, and how knowledge of the mouse visual system can inform us about the principles that govern information processing in integrated networks.

鼠标视觉皮层的高阶区域。

大脑已经进化为将环境中的感官信息转换为可用于感知和动作的神经表示。高阶的感觉皮层区域,具有越来越复杂的感受野和综合特性,被认为是该功能的关键节点。在灵长类动物视皮层中尤其如此,其中功能特定的区域参与并行流以支持各种计算。小鼠视觉皮层的最新解剖和生理学研究发现,类似的复杂网络由专门的高阶区域组成。这种结构为确定突触和电路机制提供了有用的模型,通过该机制,信息可以在不同的处理阶段之间转换。在这篇评论中,我们总结了有关布局的最新知识,鼠标较高视觉区域的连通性和功能特性。此外,我们推测了这些区域对感知和动作的贡献,以及鼠标视觉系统的知识如何使我们了解到管理集成网络中信息处理的原理。
