When animals move through complex visual environments, the brain cannot afford to analyze every detail one by one. Instead, ...

Using simulations, robots, and live fish, scientists at EPFL and Duke University have replicated the neural circuitry that allows zebrafish to react to visual stimuli and maintain their position in ...

How does the brain see the "big picture"? A new study reveals that the primary visual cortex (V1) calculates statistical ...

Using zebrafish larvae as a model organism, researchers investigated the cooperative mechanisms between the eyes and the brain that underlie visual function restoration following optic nerve injury.

The brain modulates visual signals according to internal states, as a new study by LMU neuroscientist Laura Busse reveals. What we see is not simply just a neural representation of the pattern of ...

A new study published in Nature suggests that the neural foundations of spatial navigation—the brain's internal "GPS"—may have emerged far earlier in evolution than previously believed. The research, ...

In a new study, researchers created an AI model of the mouse visual cortex that predicts neuronal responses to visual images. Much as a pilot might practice maneuvers in a flight simulator, scientists ...

Using simulations, robots, and live fish, scientists have replicated the neural circuitry that allows zebrafish to react to visual stimuli and maintain their position in flowing water. (Nanowerk News) ...
