Your brain is currently expending about a fifth of your body's energy, and almost none of that is being used for what you're doing right now. Reading these words, feeling the weight of your body in a ...

Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development of computational models inspired by the brain's layered organization, also ...

Reading seems like a straightforward process. The eyes scan the words, and the brain turns them into meaning. But it's not always that simple. Readers regularly skip words, sometimes without realizing ...

Researchers in Australia have developed a neuromorphic vision chip that can see, process, and store visual information in a single device, mimicking how the human eye and brain work together. The ...

A recent study mapping the human brain reveals that our perception of time does not happen all at once, but rather unfolds across a series of distinct physical processing stages. As visual information ...

Research in Stephen Van Hooser’s laboratory suggests the brain may follow a different set of rules during the third trimester of pregnancy and after a full-term birth, when newborns are normally ...

Scientists have shown that brain connectivity patterns can predict mental functions across the entire brain. Each region has a unique “connectivity fingerprint” tied to its role in cognition, from ...
