Ferrets are a major developmental animal model due to their early parturition. Here we show for the first time that ferrets could be used to study development of higher-level visual processes previously identified in primates. In primates, complex motion processing involves primary visual cortex (V1), which generates local motion signals, and higher-level visual area MT, which integrates these signals over more global spatial regions. Our data show similar transformations in motion signals betwe ...[more]
