Anatomical, physiological and neuroimaging studies have given us extensive knowledge of the macroanatomical landmarks, structural connectivity, laminar profiles, response properties and interspecies ...

During the development of mice, sensory experiences such as vision, touch and hearing play crucial roles in shaping and maturing neural circuits. The period when visual experience has the most ...

When you see a bag of carrots at the grocery store, does your mind go to potatoes and parsnips or buffalo wings and celery? It depends, of course, on whether you're making a hearty winter stew or ...

Through the looking glass: If this week's science news is anything to go by, it won't be long before Big Brother is peering inside our heads. Coming on the heels of US scientists revealing a GPT model ...

Recent studies have found that brain regions previously thought to only process a specific type of sensory stimuli, such as the visual cortex, can also be affected by other sensory stimuli. This might ...

Whether we’re staring at our phones, the page of a book, or the person across the table, the objects of our focus never stand in isolation; there are always other objects or people in our field of ...

A team of engineers and neuroscientists has demonstrated for the first time that human brain organoids implanted in mice have established functional connectivity to the animals' cortex and responded ...
