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

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

A new study in mice suggests psychedelics make the brain more likely to “see” images from memory rather than what’s actually in front of it. Long before modern laboratory testing, indigenous cultures ...

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

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

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

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

Scientists have successfully reconstructed videos purely from the brain activity of mice, showing what the mice were seeing, in a new study led by University College London (UCL) researchers. The ...

Researchers identify the fusiform imagery node as the brain's "imagination hub," explaining why strokes can cause the loss of visual mental imagery.

Humans and many other animals can innately recognize familiar objects in their surroundings, irrespective of the angle they are observed from, changes in lighting or other shifts in the surrounding ...

Fostering visualization of any content (curricular or otherwise) by targeting and using the occipital lobe as the central point of processing the information is one of the strongest ways to help that ...

Why do our mental images stay sharp even when we are moving fast? A team of neuroscientists led by Professor Maximilian Jösch at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) has identified a ...
