Contrast has an impact on the optokinetic reflex, which enables us to clearly perceive the landscape from a moving train. Researchers have now shown that visual features that modulate this ability are ...

Botond Roska and his group at the Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research (FMI) implicate a clearly defined neuron type and its circuit in the retina in the pathophysiology of idiopathic ...

In a new study, researchers demonstrate how functional ultrasound imaging can yield high-resolution, brain-wide activity maps of mice for specific behaviors. The non-invasive technology has promising ...

"This study elegantly shows how analysis of eye movement sheds more light on brain plasticity- an ability that is at the core of the brain's capacity to adapt and function. More specifically, it shows ...

Functional ultrasound imaging can yield high-resolution, brain-wide activity maps with promising applications for ophthalmologic, neurologic and psychiatric diseases "Functional ultrasound imaging ...
