As long as you don’t have aphantasia—the inability to visualize things in your mind’s eye—this suggestion triggers brain ...

It has long been known that the brain preferentially processes information that we focus our attention on—a classic example ...

During this task, researchers recorded neural activity in the monkey's primary visual cortex, the brain's main gateway for visual information processing.

Brain–computer interfaces are technologies that enable direct communication between brain activity and external devices, ...

Incoming information from the retina is channeled into two pathways in the brain's visual system: one that's responsible for processing color and fine spatial detail, and another that's involved ...

How that visual "clutter" affects visual processing in the brain, however, is not well understood.

A first-of-its-kind brain map shows decision-making signals spread across 95% of the brain, reshaping neuroscience research.

Neuroscientists discovered anatomical changes that occur in the white matter of visual-processing areas of the brain, in children who have congenital cataracts surgically removed.

A rare burst of visual creativity is seen occasionally in patients with frontotemporal dementia. A UCSF-led study offers new insights into how this talent develops as key areas of the brain degenerate ...

A new study may explain how the brain’s parvocellular pathway, which is responsible for processing color and fine detail, and its magnocellular pathway, which is involved in depth perception ...

Gene therapy partially restores visual processing in the geniculostriate pathway of patients with Leber congenital amaurosis type 2 while maintaining compensatory activity in the retinotectal pathway.
