When a person's hearing and vision are uncompromised and function at a relatively high level, the human brain is able to take ...

Researchers at the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience have collaborated with several universities to develop a new ...

A multidisciplinary team of researchers at Georgia Tech has discovered how lateral inhibition helps our brains process visual ...

Brain circuits are known to gradually form ... the early development of neural circuits in the mammal brain's visual cortex. Their paper, published in Nature Neuroscience, unveils patterns of ...

A Stanford-led study finds that brain organization for visual recognition is partly innate but also shaped by experience. Using MRI on infants, researchers identified stable white matter connections ...

Neuroscientists have discovered how the brain distinguishes between visual ... They discovered that individual cells in the primary visual cortex of mice use motor and vestibular signals to ...

By studying never-before-seen details of brain connectivity in human infants, researchers have identified how a balance of innate structure and flexible learning produces our remarkably organized ...

Researchers from the University of New Hampshire looked at the developmental process of the cerebral cortex—the outermost ...

The animate-inanimate category distinction is one of the general organizing principles in the primate high-level visual cortex. Much less is known about the visual cortical representations of animacy ...
