It was once believed that mice had relatively poor vision. Turns out mice are far from blind – and studying how their vision ...
An important function of our vision is to segregate relevant figures from the irrelevant background. When we look at a visual stimulus, it drives a cascade of neural activity from low-level to higher ...
The brain modulates visual signals according to internal states, as a new study by LMU neuroscientist Laura Busse reveals. What we see is not simply just a neural representation of the pattern of ...
We don’t just react emotionally to what we see. What we see is shaped by what we feel, a new study suggests. When looking at faces displaying fearful expressions, people with intact brains or with ...
Rhythmic waves of brain activity cause us to see or not see complex images that flash before our eyes. An image can become practically invisible if it flashes before our eyes at the same time as a low ...
This video covers two breakthroughs that push “mind reading” from fiction into early reality: UT Austin decoding language from brain activity, and Meta decoding visual perception from brain waves. At ...
Researchers at the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience become the first to fully characterize cell activity from a little relay station in the centre of the human brain. This aids our understanding ...
