To understand more about how we respond to what we see around us, a team of scientists at NERF has zoomed in on the organization of neurons in the superior colliculus, a midbrain structure that ...

In a recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences journal, researchers assessed the impact of infant-directed singing on the social visual behavior of the infant. When ...

A new study suggests that even if monkeys do not realize they have received a visual signal, they still change their behavior using it. The visual cortex makes up one of the largest regions of the ...

Researchers have demonstrated that specific groups of neurons, known as neuronal ensembles, have a causal role in behavior. The researchers used new optical and analytical tools to identify cortical ...

Why do elite fencers succeed in a sport where decisions must be made in milliseconds? A study suggests the secret isn't just ...
