A scientific dispute spanning six decades about fundamental mechanisms of visual perception in mammals has now been settled.
How does the brain see the "big picture"? A new study reveals that the primary visual cortex (V1) calculates statistical ...
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, ...
An illusion is when we see and perceive an object that doesn't match the sensory input that reaches our eyes. In the case of the image below, the sensory input is four Pac Man–like black figures. But ...
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 ...

Scientists reconstructed videos straight from a mouse’s brain and learned something about cognition in the process
Open the Youtube video Neuroscientists have successfully reconstructed moving images directly from the brain activity of mice ...
When animals move through complex visual environments, the brain cannot afford to analyze every detail one by one. Instead, ...
