New York: Neuroscientists have found that neurons in the retina of the eye share the job of sensing the ambient light level in our environment, enabling us to sense the overall degree of illumination. The study revealed that in retina there are light-sensing neurons — known as M1 ganglion cell photoreceptors — which are specialised […]
