Visual recognition is a fundamental human brain function, supported by a network of regions in the ventral occipito-temporal cortex (VOTC). This network is thought to be organized hierarchically, with ...
A study in mice shows for the first time that visual stimulation can help damaged retinal neurons regrow optic nerve fibers (retinal ganglion cell axons). In combination with chemically induced neural ...
A study in mice funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) shows for the first time that high-contrast visual stimulation can help damaged retinal neurons regrow optic nerve fibers, otherwise ...
During sleep, one type of electrical oscillation in the brain called PGO waves (Ponto-Geniculate-Occipital) are thought to activate the visual cortex and serve as a visual dream generator during REM ...
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 ...
Recent advances in the fields of physical activity and education for children with visual impairments have underscored the importance of tailored interventions that promote not only physical ...
During sleep, one type of electrical oscillation in the brain called PGO waves (Ponto-Geniculate-Occipital) are thought to activate the visual cortex and serve as a visual dream generator during REM ...
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that can affect a person’s life in several ways. For example, ASD can affect the way someone communicates, interacts with others, and ...
A study in mice funded by the National Institutes of Health shows for the first time that high-contrast visual stimulation can help damaged retinal neurons regrow optic nerve fibers, otherwise known ...
