A Neuronal Circuit Switch Gradual changes in the sensory environment can lead to abrupt changes in brain computations and perception. By sliding through light levels from starlight to daylight, we identified a neuronal circuit switch that abruptly and reversibly activates the inhibitory surround of a retinal ganglion cell at cone threshold. For more information, see Farrow et al., Neuron 78(2).
