When you see a bag of carrots at the grocery store, does your mind go to potatoes and parsnips or buffalo wings and celery?
A new study reveals how the brain allocates limited working memory by giving priority items more precise representation.
A new study shows that the brain's visual system adapts to your goals, reshaping perception based on what you're trying to do ...
The mammalian cortex has two broad categories of cells: neurons and glia. We know that cortical neurons can be either excitatory or inhibitory, but within those divisions, there are many subtypes ...
Our brain doesn't passively receive visual input—it actively orchestrates a symphony of neural oscillations to process the complex, dynamic scenes we see in everyday life.
This valuable study shows that locomotion-related modulations in the mouse visual cortex are not uniform but primarily affect neurons in muscarinic receptor-negative patches, which receive projections ...

Most SSMs can be broken down into two key components: inputs and integrators ( Bogacz et al., 2006 ). Inputs encode the drift rate – the rate of evidence accumulation – and integrators encode the ...
A Columbia University’s School of Engineering study in the US has shown that the brain’s visual regions play an active role in making sense of information, which could help build more adaptive ...
The digital twin was trained on large datasets of brain activity collected from the visual cortex of real mice as they watched movie clips. It could then predict the response of tens of thousands ...
