A growing body of neuroimaging research is pinpointing exactly how psychedelic drugs hijack the brain’s visual system to ...

Researchers use compressed AI models to discover "dot-detecting" neurons in the macaque visual cortex, offering a new path for Alzheimer’s therapy.

A neuroimaging study published in Psychiatry Research: Neuroimaging has identified hyperactivity in the superior occipital ...

The modern journey began when Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann synthesised LSD in 1938. In the 1970s and 80s, researchers found that these drugs attach to a specific brain receptor (called 5-HT2A) that ...

NYU Langone neuroscientists identified the brain region likely responsible for recognizing images after seeing them once, ...

Scientists used a compact AI model to predict how visual cortex neurons respond to images, revealing hidden patterns in perception.

People who lose their visual imagination after a stroke share damage to a single neural circuit. A new analysis maps these ...

Scientists have successfully reconstructed videos purely from the brain activity of mice, showing what the mice were seeing, in a new study led by University College London (UCL) researchers. The ...

Humans and many other animals can innately recognize familiar objects in their surroundings, irrespective of the angle they are observed from, changes in lighting or other shifts in the surrounding ...

Fostering visualization of any content (curricular or otherwise) by targeting and using the occipital lobe as the central point of processing the information is one of the strongest ways to help that ...

Why do our mental images stay sharp even when we are moving fast? A team of neuroscientists led by Professor Maximilian Jösch at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) has identified a ...
