Functional bipartite invariance in mouse primary visual cortex receptive fields

Nature Neuroscience, Published online: 25 February 2026; doi:10.1038/s41593-026-02213-3

This study uses the inception loop framework to map neuronal invariances in mouse V1, revealing a bipartite receptive-field organization linked to segmentation and a synaptic-level hierarchy of increasing invariance supported by the MICrONS dataset.
