Neural subpopulations in marmoset area MT/MTC detect and discount saccade-related retinal motion

Primates rely on eye movements made 2-3 times every second to scan their visual environment. Each eye movement induces substantial retinal motion, yet observers readily suppress it to stitch together the percept of a stable world. Neurons in the middle temporal (MT) and medial superior temporal (MST) areas respond to m...
