This page covers biological details of component Retina. Region is part of aHuman target integrated biological model.

• Top-down path to region: Forebrain Diencephalon -> Retina (LPC.FD.RT) (see Mind Maps)
• Type: nucleus
• Brain area: Lower Brain - Peripheral Control Area
• Role: relay
• Function: Spatial decorrelation through center surround inhibition
• Notes to function: 100:1 cones/rods to ganglion cells aggregation, edge extraction
