An unprecedented dataset of high resolution anatomical images of individual cells in mouse visual cortex, mapped on to their responses. This integrated view of function and structure lays a foundation ...

该研究探索了哺乳动物初级视觉皮层（V1）中方向选择性出现背后的丘脑皮层计算机制。 在个体突触层面上解析丘脑皮层（TC）的激活情况对于理解大脑如何处理感官信息至关重要。 2026年3月26日，慕尼黑工业大学Arthur Konnerth团队（Yang Chen为第一作者）在Science 在线发表题为“Thalamic activation of the visual cortex at the s ...

A scientific dispute spanning six decades about fundamental mechanisms of visual perception in mammals has now been settled.

How does the brain perceive time? A new fMRI study identifies a three-stage neural relay from the visual cortex to the frontal regions that constructs our subjective experience of duration and timing.

When animals move through complex visual environments, the brain cannot afford to analyze every detail one by one. Instead, ...

Every illusion has a backstage crew. New research shows the brain’s own “puppet strings”—special neurons that quietly tug our perception—help us see edges and shapes that don’t actually exist. When ...

The 1950s were a relatively rudimentary era for experimental neurophysiology. Recording the electrical activity of neurons wasn’t uncommon, but the methods often demanded considerable patience and ...

New ultra–high-field brain scans reveal hidden body maps inside the visual system, showing how the brain weaves sight and touch together to build a unified sense of ...

Most optical illusions last for a few fleeting moments when you're staring at the book, screen, or whatever medium the ...
