Melanopsin Contributions to Irradiance Coding in the Thalamo-Cortical Visual System: e1000558

Photoreception in the mammalian retina is not restricted to rods and cones but extends to a subset of retinal ganglion cells expressing the photopigment melanopsin (mRGCs). These mRGCs are known to drive such reflex light responses as circadian photoentrainment and pupillomotor movements. By contras...
