During this task, researchers recorded neural activity in the monkey's primary visual cortex, the brain's main gateway for visual information processing.

When you see something—a tree in your backyard, say, or the toy your toddler hands you—that visual information travels from ...

The researchers also uncovered a general property of the visual cortex that was not previously known. There are several brain areas involved in seeing and recognizing an object, and information is ...

Researchers at Neuro-Electronics Research Flanders (NERF), led by Prof. Vincent Bonin, have published two new studies uncovering how visual information is processed and distributed in the brain.

A new study has provided insight into how the brain integrates visual and auditory signals to inform quick motor responses.

Large language models, or LLMs, are the AI engines behind Google’s Gemini, ChatGPT, Anthropic’s Claude, and the rest. But ...

Researchers discovered that bees use flight movements to sharpen brain signals, enabling them to recognize patterns with ...

Without us even noticing it, our brains are the ultimate multitaskers. The brain’s prefrontal cortex can tell us when it is ...

A recent study from the University of Pennsylvania investigates how gene therapy targeting mutations in the RPE65 gene changes the brain's visual processing pathways. The study, published in Brain ...

Brain regions responsible for language had shrunk in a large number of these visually creative patients, while their visual processing area showed increased activation. Adit Friedberg, MD First author ...
