In a massive scientific effort, hundreds of researchers have helped to map the connections between hundreds of thousands of neurons in the mouse brain and then overlayed their firing patterns in ...
Our survival depends upon our ability to observe the world around us accurately and reliably. Disturbances in visual perception occur in a range of psychiatric and neurodevelopmental diseases, ...
Optical illusions have fascinated scientists, psychologists, and artists for centuries because they reveal one simple truth ...
Scientists have shown that brain connectivity patterns can predict mental functions across the entire brain. Each region has ...
Recent technological advances have opened new possibilities for neuroscience research, allowing researchers to map the ...
Our brains actively construct vision in near-darkness, blending residual light with memory and prediction. Even with minimal ...
Memory and perception seem like entirely distinct experiences, and neuroscientists used to be confident that the brain produced them differently, too. But in the 1990s neuroimaging studies revealed ...
Traditionally, perception and cognition have been considered distinct domains of psychological science. Perception was understood to be the raw data collector—our sensory touchpoint with the external ...
