Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, ...

A research group led by Prof. Zhang Peng from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has revealed how ...

MIT researchers discovered that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t just send generic control signals—it tailors its messages to different brain regions based on arousal and movement.

Scientists at EPFL have developed an innovative, non-invasive brain stimulation therapy to significantly improve visual ...

The authors analyzed spectral properties of neural activity recorded using laminar probes while mice engaged in a global/local visual oddball paradigm. They found solid evidence for an increase in ...

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 ...

HBP researchers have trained a large-scale model of the primary visual cortex of the mouse to solve visual tasks in a highly robust way. The model provides the basis for a new generation of neural ...

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 ...

The optic nerve travels posteriorly through the orbit (the bony cavity that houses the eye) and enters the cranial cavity ...

Scientists at EPFL have developed an innovative, non-invasive brain stimulation therapy to significantly improve visual function in stroke patients who have suffered vision loss following a stroke.
