The human brain is a relentless processor of sensory information, yet only a small fraction of this input reaches the level of conscious awareness. The ...

The brains of mammals continuously combine signals originating from different regions to produce various sensations, emotions, thoughts and behaviors. This process, known as information integration, ...

A new two-photon fluorescence microscope developed at UC Davis can capture high-speed images of neural activity at cellular resolution thanks to a new adaptive sampling scheme and line illumination.

We've been taught to distrust our inner worlds. Scientific rigor demands external measurement, controlled experiments, objective instruments. Introspection seems subjective, unreliable—the antithesis ...
