Scientists used a compact AI model to predict how visual cortex neurons respond to images, revealing hidden patterns in perception.

CAMBRIDGE, MA -- When visual information enters the brain, it travels through two pathways that process different aspects of the input. For decades, scientists have hypothesized that one of these ...

People who lose their visual imagination after a stroke share damage to a single neural circuit. A new analysis maps these ...

Imagine arriving at a busy location with people moving around and a multitude of visual and other sensory cues vying for your ...

Incoming information from the retina is channeled into two pathways in the brain's visual system: one that's responsible for processing color and fine spatial detail, and another that's involved in ...

UC Santa Barbara neuroscientists have reconstructed the entire anterior visual pathway of a fruit fly, a complex series of neural connections between the insect’s eyes and the navigation center of its ...

Imagine a ball bouncing down a flight of stairs. Now think about a cascade of water flowing down those same stairs. The ball and the water behave very differently, and it turns out that your brain has ...
