I worked in the lab of Dr. Jeffrey Diamond at the National Institutes of Neurological Disorders and Stroke. I investigated the contrast sensitivity of mouse retinal ganglion cells for replication purposes based on studies on contrast sensitivity on different animal models such as mouse, cats, and rhesus monkeys. Significance is centered over the basic scientific understanding of how animals physiologically interpret visual information from their surroundings and cell morphology.I know it's hard to try and describe a research project to anyone without some sort of visual aid, so feel free to take a look at the image below!
