title: Visual transduction: microvilli orchestrate photoreceptor responses to light.
abstract: How do the microscopic properties of a photoreceptor shape the transformation of photon inputs into electrical outputs? Adaptive feedback, combined with stochastic sampling of light by transduction units, efficiently captures visual information.
