The way the brain develops can shape us throughout our lives, so neuroscientists are intensely curious about how it happens.

The next time you reach for a memory or make a quick choice, a storm of tiny signals races through your brain. Scientists can ...

Your ability to notice what matters visually comes from an ancient brain system over 500 million years old.

When we watch someone move, get injured, or express emotion, our brain doesn’t just see it—it partially feels it. Researchers found eight body-like maps in the visual cortex that organize what we see ...

When we dream, images stored in the visual cortex interact with the amygdala (the seat of emotion) and hippocampus (memory) to weave fragments into chaotic montages. The more vibrant the input, the ...

In visual cortex, neural correlates of subjective perception can be generated by modulation of activity from beyond the classical receptive field (CRF). In macaque V1, activity generated by ...

To study how a key chemical neuromodulator affects signaling in the brain's cortex, Garrett Neske, PhD, has received a three-year, $300,000 grant from the Whitehall Foundation, a nonprofit ...
