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

It sounds like an oxymoron, but we could find the origin of consciousness in our brains using the brains of those who are unconscious.

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

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

Researchers challenge the "efficiency" theory of the brain, showing that neurons become more coordinated and share more information as learning occurs.

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

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

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

Each year, thousands of stroke survivors are left with hemianopia, a condition that causes loss of half of their visual field (the “vertical midline”). Hemianopia severely affects daily ...

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 ...
