John H. R. Maunsell specializes in Visual cortex, namely Lateral geniculate nucleus.
His studies in Macaque integrate themes in fields like Medial superior temporal area and Communication.
The various areas that he examines in his Visual system study include Orientation and Psychophysics.
His Receptive field research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Visual processing, Attentional modulation, Orientation column, Behavioral state and Cortex.
His most cited work include:
- HOW PARALLEL ARE THE PRIMATE VISUAL PATHWAYS (1346 citations)
- The connections of the middle temporal visual area (MT) and their relationship to a cortical hierarchy in the macaque monkey (1275 citations)
- Functional properties of neurons in middle temporal visual area of the macaque monkey. I. Selectivity for stimulus direction, speed, and orientation (1274 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Neuroscience, Visual cortex, Stimulus, Macaque and Visual perception.
His study in Neuroscience concentrates on Cerebral cortex, Sensory system, Receptive field, Visual system and Premovement neuronal activity.
His study on Visual cortex also encompasses disciplines like
- Cognitive psychology which intersects with area such as Visual attention,
- N2pc and related P200.
He works mostly in the field of Stimulus, limiting it down to topics relating to Motion perception and, in certain cases, Motion detection and Communication, as a part of the same area of interest.
His Macaque research includes elements of Electrophysiology, Magnocellular cell, Parvocellular cell, Primate and Visual field.
His work deals with themes such as Psychophysics and Visual processing, which intersect with Visual perception.
He most often published in these fields:
- Neuroscience (88.82%)
- Visual cortex (61.18%)
- Stimulus (32.89%)
