Some uniquely human nerve circuits for color vision allow people to perceive a greater range of blue tones than monkeys do. @PNASNews study by Yeon Jin Kim @RetinaVision @Dacey_Lab @BioStructureUW & colleagues @SydneySaveSight et al bit.ly/3ABq1gH
Bulb-like axon terminals of cone photoreceptors in the marmoset’s foveal retina. The blue pedicle, a short wavelength sensitive neuron, gives rise to complex circuitry that starts a neural code for color perception. Image by Yeon Jin Kim @retinavision @Dacey_Lab @BiostructureUW @PNASNews
