Testing time

A colorblind male squirrel monkey named Dalton is pictured here taking a color vision test. Gene therapy gave Dalton a photoreceptor that detects red light and he can now pick out red dots from a gray background and distinguish red and green from other colors. The experiments suggests that color can be added to vision without rewiring the brain to process the new information. Credit: Neitz Laboratory, University of Washington
