Scientists hope results analysed after the mice watched video footage will help them understand their perceptions ...

Researchers successfully reconstruct high-quality 10-second videos from mouse brain activity using single-cell recordings and a dynamic neural encoding model.

Researchers use AI "digital twins" to discover a new type of neuron in the visual cortex that perceives complex textures and object arrangements.

NYU Langone neuroscientists identified the brain region likely responsible for recognizing images after seeing them once, ...

A growing body of neuroimaging research is pinpointing exactly how psychedelic drugs hijack the brain’s visual system to ...

A neuroimaging study published in Psychiatry Research: Neuroimaging has identified hyperactivity in the superior occipital ...

The visual cortex is the part of the brain that enables visual perception. In this area millions of nerve cells, called neurons, process stimuli from the outside world. They only react when objects ...

It sounds like an oxymoron, but we could find the origin of consciousness in our brains using the brains of those who are unconscious.

Every illusion has a backstage crew. New research shows the brain’s own “puppet strings”—special neurons that quietly tug our perception—help us see edges and shapes that don’t actually exist. When ...
