Abstract
To study the physiology of the primate visual system, non-invasive electrophysiological techniques are of major importance. Two main techniques are available: the electroretinogram (ERG), a mass potential originating in the retina, and the visual evoked potential (VEP), which reflects activity in the primary visual cortex. In this overview, the history and the state of the art of these techniques are briefly presented as an introduction to the special issue “New Developments in non-invasive visual electrophysiology”. The overview and the special issue can be used as the starting point for exciting new developments in the electrophysiology of primate and mammalian vision.
