title: Lagged cells.
abstract: The timing of the retinal input to the lateral geniculate nucleus is highly modified in lagged cells. Evidence is reviewed for how the responses of these cells are generated, how their structure and function differs from their nonlagged neighbors, and what their projections to cortex might do.
