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

A new study in mice suggests psychedelics make the brain more likely to 'see' images from memory rather than what's actually ...

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

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

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 ...

Scientists have successfully reconstructed videos purely from the brain activity of mice, showing what the mice were seeing, in a new study led by University College London (UCL) researchers. The ...

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

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 1950s were a relatively rudimentary era for experimental neurophysiology. Recording the electrical activity of neurons wasn’t uncommon, but the methods often demanded considerable patience and ...
