MIT scientists found that what we see is strongly influenced by how alert or active we are. Parts of the brain responsible ...

Cross frequency brain stimulation enhances visual recovery after stroke, improving motion processing and visual field ...

Blindsight describes the phenomenon whereby individuals with damage to the primary visual cortex (V1) retain certain visually guided behaviours despite an absence of conscious visual perception. In ...

New research shows that the prefrontal cortex doesn’t simply broadcast generic commands to sensory regions—it sends finely tailored signals that shape how the brain processes vision depending on ...

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

If watching Robert De Niro ordering hammer-based retribution on a cheat's hand in Casino instinctively made you wince, you are not alone.

Neuroscientists discovered anatomical changes that occur in the white matter of visual-processing areas of the brain, in children who have congenital cataracts surgically removed. For many decades, ...

A schematic view of the main findings, adapting from a brain figure in the study. Our ability to store information about familiar objects depends on the connection between visual and language ...

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 ...

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.
