Blindsight describes the phenomenon whereby individuals with damage to the primary visual cortex (V1) retain certain visually guided behaviours despite an absence of conscious visual perception. In ...

Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development ...

Visual shape processing and perception constitute a central pillar in understanding how the human brain interprets complex visual stimuli. Research in this field has revealed a multifaceted framework ...

Researchers have demonstrated the use of AI-selected natural images and AI-generated synthetic images as neuroscientific tools for probing the visual processing areas of the brain. The goal is to ...

Imagine a ball bouncing down a flight of stairs. Now think about a cascade of water flowing down those same stairs. The ball and the water behave very differently, and it turns out that your brain has ...

Whether we're staring at our phones, the page of a book, or the person across the table, the objects of our focus never stand in isolation; there are always other objects or people in our field of ...

Gene therapy with voretigene neparvovec-rzyl partially restores geniculostriate pathway function in LCA2 patients, improving visual processing. Initial LCA2 pathology shifts visual processing from the ...

A small team of brain researchers at South China Normal University, working with a colleague from the University of New South Wales, has found that the visual processing parts of the brain light up in ...
