While visual training will likely continue to be a productive part of treatment for people with hemianopia, the EPFL study ...

This important study combines optogenetic manipulations and wide-field imaging to show that the retrosplenial cortex controls behavioral responses to whisker deflection in a context-dependent manner.

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...

VTT Project has combined neuromorphic computing—which mimics the way the brain processes information—with semiconductor technologies ...

MIT scientists found that what we see is strongly influenced by how alert or active we are. Parts of the brain responsible for planning and control send specialized signals that either boost or quiet ...

Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...

Do you suffer from parallelophobia? If you deal with an irrational fear of parallel parking, you're not alone. Nearly half of all Americans suffer from this condition, and in Britain, many would ...

Parking is not always an easy task. Sometimes spots are too tight, too small or positioned strangely — not to mention the potential obstacles hindering your perfect parking, like other vehicles, trees ...

Bumblebees can process the duration of flashes of light and use the information to decide where to look for food, a new study has found. This is the first evidence of such an ability in insects, ...

For over 150 years, neuroscientists have known that a small region in the left frontal lobe—Broca's area—plays a crucial role in speech production. Named after French physician Paul Broca, who ...

Abstract: Edge visual systems demand high energy-efficiency vision processors like neuromorphic hardware leveraging spike-based computations. But their disability of directly interacting with ...
