Researchers use compressed AI models to discover "dot-detecting" neurons in the macaque visual cortex, offering a new path for Alzheimer’s therapy.

The trial-to-trial variability of neuronal responses and the correlated response variability among neurons are modulated by visual stimulus size in a manner that depends on cortical layer, suggesting ...

Even mild head injuries can mean serious consequences for brain function at its most basic level. Research published in Communications Biology shows that neuroplasticity, too, has its limits. Injuries ...

A single clear image can rewire the visual brain, making later recognition faster without relying on memory systems.

New research shows how psychedelics alter visual processing and boost memory-linked brain circuits to generate hallucinations, revealing mechanisms with therapeutic implications.

Whether we’re staring at our phones, the page of a book, or the person across the table, the objects of our focus never stand in isolation; there are always other objects or people in our field of ...

The cerebral cortex of your brain is the outermost layer. It's the part of the brain that appears wrinkled because it has a lot of folds. Your cerebral cortex is divided into two hemispheres. Each ...
